Here, it’s visible that, Commercial Banks have to maintain a higher SLR than Islami Banks.
This is because of different operational modality & fewer qualified investment opportunity
for islami banks.

Findings:
Islamic banking has become popular all over the world. Various reputed local and
international banks have also started launching Islamic windows because of the success of
Islamic banking. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has openly acknowledged the
progress of Islamic banking. According to the IMF, Islamic banks are becoming increasingly
popular around the world and the demand for this type of banking is growing rapidly. In a
report on Islamic banking, the IMF said that in this sector (Islamic banking) both parties have
to take profit and loss equally. No one have to take higher risk than another. As the risk is
low, the interest toward Islamic banking is increasing. It is expanding widely. It has a lot of
potential because of the world’s interest in this sector due to trust and religious beliefs.
The interest of the people of the country towards Islamic banking is increasing day by day.
By capitalizing on this interest of the people, the conventional banks are also leaning towards
Islamic banking. Some conventional banks want to open new branches and windows of
Islamic banking and some want to transform their operation into full-fledged Islamic
banking. Recently, the two banks have received approval to convert from conventional banks
to full-fledged Islamic banking. Some more conventional banks are trying to convert into
full-fledged Islamic banking.
According to the industry expert, most of the people in our country are religious. They are
more comfortable with Shariah-based business than interest-based business. Islamic banks
collect deposits in Mudaraba based system. Then, they invest those money in various Shariah
approved methods. The profits earned from this are distributed among the depositors and
shareholders. As a result, people's confidence in this system is increasing day by day. In
addition, Islamic banking has less risk and more opportunities. Therefore, conventional banks
are also leaning towards Islamic banking. A conventional bank can give a loan of Tk 75
against a deposit of Tk 100. On the other hand, Islamic banks can give loan Tk 90 against
deposit of Tk 100. While the conventional banks are required to keep 13 percent SLR, for
Islamic banks it is 5.5 percent. Although Islamic banks can change the rate of return on
deposits at any time, conventional banks cannot. This creates an opportunity for Islamic Bank
to make better profits than conventional banks. As a result, many banks are interested in
converting to Islamic banking. So, Islamic banking sector is increasing day by day. Several
banks in Bangladesh have been trying to convert to Islamic banking for a long time.
Recently, Standard Bank and NRB Global Bank were added to the list.
Conclusion:
The size of our banking sector is quite large. The amount of people's deposits and loans in
this sector is not less. There is always a lot of discussion and instability regarding traditional
private banks and Islamic banks. A balance between traditional private banks and Islamic
banks is important. Our central bank is trying their best to ensure the stability within this
banking sector.
