NEWSLETTER 23rdDec 2012 Editor’s Blog An article quoted when nations become strong and their companies begin to spread business to other countries, interests are bound to either collide or come together. Editor’s Blog The minnows of stock market seems to have stolen the show on Dalal Street in 2012 with better returns than their large blue-chip peers and appreciation of up to 40 per cent in their share prices. While the stock market has seen a smart across-the-board rebound towards the end of the year after taking a big beating in 2011, it is the shares of medium and small size companies in terms of market valuations that have recorded better gains on a full-year basis. As the year 2012 draws to an the mid-cap and small-cap indices have appreciated by about 40 per cent and 35 per cent, respectively, shows an analysis of the BSE data. Analysts said that higher foreign fund inflows, strong intent from the government towards reforms and cheaper valuations are some of the driving factors behind the smart rally in the broader markets this year. Sensex has gained around 25 per cent so far in 2012 aided by FII inflows which bought stocks worth over $22.5 billion. This winning situation in the market seems to be the outcome of blast of liquidity from western central banks, coupled with government's renewed interest for reforms since September," Aditya Trading Solutions MD Vikas Jain said. According to Edelweiss Financial Services' Head of Research VinayKhattar, decisions to open up FDI in multi-brand retail and civil aviation, as also hike in fuel prices, were among the major policy initiatives that helped the markets.

NEWSLETTER 23rdDec 2012 • ISLAMIC TREASURY DESERVES ATTENTION • There is being lot discussed about various impediments of Islamic Banking system. On my latest research on Islamic treasury I found out that liquidity is becoming a huge problem for Islamic Banks due to its improper management. Traditionally banks manage their liquidity by investing in short term interest based securities which is not the cup of tea for an Islamic banking. The market for Islamic bank products are extremely shallow and illiquid, and money markets are almost non existent since viable instruments are currently not available. The lack in liquidity enhancing instruments has eliminated a large segment of potential investors. At this juncture Islamic treasury and securitization has an opportunity to develop more liquid instruments for Islamic banks to tap its potential short term investors. Islamic treasury offers a wide range of opportunities for the bankers to earn profits through their savings and deposits. The concept of Islamic treasury began since the time Zakat and Jizya were collected in the treasury of an Islamic government and were used to provide income for the needy including the poorelderly,orphans widows, and the disabled. . HADITH OF THE WEEK Narrated Abu Said Al-Khudri and Abu Huraira: Allah's Apostle employed someone as a governor at Khaibar. When the man came to Medina, he brought with him dates called Janib. The Prophet asked him, "Are all the dates of Khaibar of this kind?" The man replied, "(No), we exchange two Sa's of bad dates for one Sa of this kind of dates (i.e. Janib), or exchange three Sa's for two." On that, the Prophet said, "Don't do so, as it is a kind of usury (Riba) but sell the dates of inferior quality for money, and then buy Janib with the money". The Prophet said the same thing about dates sold by weight. (See Hadith No. 506). Volume 3, Book 38, Number 499: GLOSSARY OF ISLAMIC BANKING TERMINOLOGY Hiwalah A remittance or bill of exchange, This is a contract which allows a debtor to transfer his debt obligation to a third party who owes the former a debt. The mechanism of Hiwalah is used for settling international accounts by book transfers, thus obviating the need for a physical transfer of cash.
