Abstract

The banking system in general incorporates various risks that require taking precautions and adequate procedures to manage and control these risks according to the international best practice in order to mitigate potential risk exposures or avoid them. As a result of the increasing financial crisis in countries around the globe that resulted in the collapse of many reputable international banking institutions, which was a result of the inadequate managing and controlling their risks. In this context, the Basel II accords was introduced in the year 2006, and made a major impact on the banking supervision. Although major differences exist between Islamic and conventional banks, it is required for Islamic banks to cope with international banking standards and provide viable and safe banking grounds. Generally, this study has revealed that the two selected banks have: a capital adequacy ratio higher than the Basel Committee’s minimum level of 8%, there are a growth intentions of risk management and required to comply with the standardized approach and measure risk exposure for capital adequacy. On the other hand most of the Islamic banks have a lot of problems in: calculating capital adequacy ratio, the supervisory review process and the market discipline. As in the case of all banks in emerging countries that are not fully capable of implementing Basel II accords, Islamic banks do not possess the adequate levels of core requirements for such practices, which reflect a negative outlook for the readiness to commit to Basel II requirements. يكتنف النشاط المصرفي العديد من المخاطر التي تتطلب من البنوك اتخاذ التدابير والإجراءات الملائمة لإدارة وضبط هذه المخاطر، وفق أفضل الممارسات الدولية من أجل التخفيف من الخسائر المحتملة أو تجنبها. ونتيجة لتزايد الأزمات المالية في العديد من الدول وما رافقها من انهيار مؤسسات مصرفية ذات سمعة وانتشار دوليين، جاءت مقررات اتفاقية بازل 1 ثم بازل 2، حيث شكلت هذه الأخيرة تطورًا كبيرًا في مجال الرقابة المصرفية وثقافة جديدة في إدارة المخاطر المصرفية. والبنوك الإسلامية باعتبارها جزءًا من النظام المصرفي في الكثير من الدول التي اهتمت بتطبيقها وتطويعها مع مبادئ عملها، حيث لاحظنا من خلال هذه الدراسة أن البنكين المدروسين قاما بإنشاء الهياكل اللازمة لتطبيقها، وكذلك تمتعا بكفاية رأس مال أكبر من النسبة المحددة. ومن جهة أخرى، فالبنوك الإسلامية لا زالت تعاني من عدة مشاكل وقصور في تطبيق مقررات بازل 2، شأنها في ذلك شأن معظم البنوك في المنطقة العربية ودول العالم الثالث. والبنوك الإسلامية مدعوة، أكثر من غيرها من البنوك، للتعاون فيما بينها للوصول إلى اتفاق موحد حول كيفية حساب كفاية رأس المال وآليات الرقابة الأخرى، مما يمكنها من مواجهة المخاطر المصرفية بفعالية أكبر، وبالتالي مواجهة تحديات العولمة خاصة في ظل الأزمة المالية المعاصرة.
