Abstract

The Issues raised by scholar regarding the different role of the Islamic banks as intermediary or as direct investor. The types of investment tools have caused Islamic banks to deviate from its original role. However، the depositor side has been ignored in the struggle to find a substitute for loans. In fact Intermediation is one source of inefficiency and Islamic economy should look into the right direction in creating Islamic efficient capital market. Investor can enter and exit in efficient market (highly liquid، correct pricing، with minim transaction cost). The market has high number of entry and exit for saver and investor the investment horizon match is unnecessary. The bank role is provider for conventional services and keeper of money. Individual in a full investment economy and uses cashes for investment. يتركز الحوار حول دور البنك كوسيط ودخول البنوك الإسلامية في مجالات ذات مخاطر من خلال أدواتها، خروجا عن دور الوسيط التقليدي ودخولا في دور مشترك هو وسيط ومستثمر. هناك انحراف في الممارسة تجاه المودع ناجم عن التركيز على مصلحة جانب دون الآخر . والواجب هو تطوير سوق مالية كفيئة مثلى حيث الصفقات والمعلومات عديمة الكلفة، وحيث تعبر اسعار السوق عن القيمة الحقيقية للأصول وتأخذ في الحسبان المدة والربحية ...إلخ .ومع كثرة الممولين والمتمولين لا حاجة لربط المدد اللازمة للاستثمار لأن السوق يوفر دوما من يرغب في الحلول محل الغير . في السوق المالية المثلى يصبح عمل البنوك كوسيط مظهراً لعدم الكفاءة، وينحصر دورها الصحيح حينئذٍ في الحفاظ على الأموال، دون الدخول في استثمارات والمخاطرة بأموال الغير . والفرد في تلك السوق لا يحتفظ بالأرصدة النقدية إلا لمواجهة الطوارئ .
