ABSTRACT
Islamic banking is a banking system that is based on the principles of Islamic law, also
referred to as Shariah law, and guided by Islamic economics. Financial transactions within
Islamic banking are a culturally distinct form of ethical investing. On the other
hand, Conventional Banking is an Un-Ethical Banking system based on Man-Made Laws. It is
profit-oriented and its purpose is to make money through interest. This study analyzes the
financial performance of Banking Sector in Pakistan. The aim of this study is to compare the
financial performance of conventional banking sector and Islamic banking sector. For this
purpose all banks in Pakistan selected for this study and most of data has been collected from
financial statements of sampled banks over the period of 2007 to 2016.
CAMEL model is used to analysis the performance of both types of banks in tem of Capital
adequacy, Asset quality, Management and Liquidity. I have constructed the financial
performance index (FPI) which based on CAMEL ratios and banks performance ranked
according to FPI. Result show that Conventional Banks were on the top of list. Progress ratio
showed that Islamic banks had better performance than Conventional Banks in 2016 as
compared to 2007.

CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
In this chapter of my thesis have to introduce the background of the study I have
made, the gap analysis, problem statement, research objectives, research questions, research
hypothesis and the significance of the study.
1.1 Background of the Study
The role of banks in economic development is to remove the deficiency of capital by
stimulating savings and investment. A sound banking system mobilizes the small and
scattered savings of the community, and makes them available for investment in productive
enterprises.
Van Horne, James and Wachowicz, John (2005) told that, “A bank is a corporation
registered with either the central bank or the federal government of the country. They provide
the services of deposits, withdrawals, interest dealing, making loans, discount notes,
investments in financial securities etc depending on bank’s type.
Islamic banking is a banking system that is based on the principles of Islamic law, also
referred to as Shariah law, and guided by Islamic economics. Two basic principles behind
Islamic banking are the sharing of profit and loss and, significantly, the prohibition of the
collection and payment of interest by lenders and investors.
Since this system of banking is grounded in Islamic principles, all the undertakings of
the banks follow Islamic morals. Therefore, it could be said that financial transactions within
Islamic banking are a culturally distinct form of ethical investing.
On the other hand, Conventional Banking is an Un-Ethical Banking system based on Man-
Made Laws. It is profit-oriented and its purpose is to make money through interest”
2
This sector can perform important role in the overall country’s economic performance. In
Pakistan, the banking sector has always shown notable performance in the past and in the
same way the trend is going on.
I am going to examine the financial performance of Islamic and Conventional banks in
Pakistan. I compared the efficiency and effectiveness in operation of both banks conventional
and Islamic banks in terms of Capital adequacy, Asset Quality, Management, Earnings and
Liquidity.
1.2 Gap Analysis
Islamic banking is the parallel banking system in Pakistan and almost in every muslim
country. Comparative performance study of both banking systems is conducted by many
researcher in Pakistan and Muslim countries. In Pakistan their in no research conducted by
any researcher since 2012. Banks play a vital role in the economic activities of any country so
there is necessary to analyze the performance of conventional and Islamic banks regularly.
Islamic banking is becoming a famous in the Muslim community day by day so to improve
the performance we must have to study and analyze both banking sector.
1.3 Problem Statement
“Comparative analysis of financial performance of Islamic and conventional banks”.
In Pakistan conventional and Islamic banks are operational parallel. Some conventional banks
also offer Islamic banking system among pure Islamic banks. Islamic banks economical
activities are based on Islamic shariah Law in which both parties’ investor and lender equally
share profit and loss. Conventional banks operations are based on Interest. So how the both
banking sectors are performing in the economic activities with this distinct.
1.4 Objectives
? To conduct a comparative analysis of Islamic bank and conventional banks in
Pakistan.
? To find out whether the Islamic bank or conventional banks are operating efficiently.
3
1.5 Research Questions
? Are Islamic banks performing better than conventional banks in Pakistan?
? Are Conventional banks performing better than Islamic banks in Pakistan?
1.6 Significance of the study
The research will provide assist in comparison of performance of Islamic
banks and conventional banks of Pakistan. This research is relate with whole banking sector
of Pakistan in which Islamic bank and conventional banks are doing their jobs according to
the same rules and regulation of economic, political and social work frame.
As banks play a vital role in economic activities of any country so it’s necessary to
evaluate the performance of banks. This study is useful for all stakeholders and investors in
making right decisions regarding bank capital adequacy, asset quality, management, earning
and liquidity. This study is also important because few researchers have work on this issue in
Pakistan. Investors need safety against safe custody of financial valuables so it’s important to
compare the financial performance analysis of conventional and Islamic banks to take right
decision.

CHAPTER 2
LITERATURE RIVEW
In this chapter, I have to review some of the research studies on Islamic and
conventional banking. Let us see what previous studies say about the comparative financial
performance of Islamic banking and conventional banking.
2.1 Review of Literature
Muhammad Imran, Hunjra and Amber (2014) conducted the research on Comparative

depositors, investors, bank managers and shareholder by providing the clear picture of
financial position of Islamic banks as well as Conventional banks in Pakistan. For this
purpose he used 5 year annual data starting from 2008-2012. He used Ratio analysis technique

Islamic banks are as profitable as conventional banks although the Islamic banks are infant in
5
banking industry of Pakistan. Liquidity and solvency ratio show that Islamic banks are batter
then conventional because Islamic banks maintain lower debt and more equity in capital
structure so that it minimize the risk of default. Islamic banks are more efficient in cost but
less efficient in profit and revenue as compared to conventional banks.

Conventional banks in Pakistan for the period of 2006 -2009. They estimated financial ratio to
measure the performance in tem of profitability, liquidity risk and solvency, capital adequacy
6
development and operational efficiency. They used t test and ANOVA to determine

of profitability. While this paper discovered the divergence in liquidity and credit
7
performance.The trend analysis reveals the good trend of balance sheet of Islamic bank while

of tests are employed. First category is based on the comparison of the means in three
categories of banks. Secondly they used the trend analysis for graphical comparison and
trends in CAMEL ratios. Tests were performed using SPSS. They conclude that there are
significant differences in the mean CAMEL ratios of three bank types. The performance
measurements of Islamic banking in Pakistan are different in comparison to the results drawn
from the similar studies done in other parts of the world. The difference in results is largely
8
due to the fact that Islamic banking has longer history in these countries as compared to
Pakistan where full-fledged Islamic banking started merely few years back. Moreover,
conventional banking has a longer history, deeper roots, vast experience of learning from the
financial markets mechanisms, and larger share in the Pakistan financial sector. They found
that Islamic bank have adequate capital and Good asset management as compared to Islamic
branches of Conventional banks and Conventional banks. Islamic banks in general have good
management competency in comparison to conventional banks. The earnings of Islamic
branches of conventional banks are greater than full-fledge Islamic banks and conventional
banks.

stochastic Frontier approach and traditional financial approach. They found higher rate of
return for Islamic banking as compared to conventional banking.
Ishaq AB, Karim A, Ahmed S and Zaheer Aconducted research on evaluating
performances of commercial banks in Pakistan. An application of camel model. For this
purpose they used seven years data starting from 2007-2013. Data was collected from
16
articles, papers, the World Wide Web and pervious papers. CAMEL approach was used to
evaluate the execution of financial accuracy of conventional banks in Pakistan. They took
capital adequacy, asset quality, management efficiency, earning and liquidity as independent
variables and earnings per share is dependent variable. They concluded that total deposit to
equity, non-performing loan to gross advances, non-performing loan to equity. Admin
expenses to interest income ratio and gross advances to total deposits ratio was negatively
correlated with banks performance. The return on asset and return on equity positively
correlated to banks performance.
Muhammad FarhanAkhtar, Khizer Ali, ShamaSadaqatconducted research on Liquidity
Risk Management: A comparative study between Conventional and Islamic Banks of
Pakistan.The main objective of this study was to evaluate the liquidity risk management in
conventional and Isamic banks of Pakistan. For this purpose they used sample of six Islamic
banks and six conventional banks. Data was collected from annual reports of the banks for the
period of 2006 to 2009. They used liquidity risk as dependent variable and size of bank,
Return on asset, networking Capital, return on equity, and capital adequacy ratio as
independent variable. Descriptive statistics, correlation and regression analysis was used to
compare the effect of independent variable on the dependent variable. They concluded that
there was positive relationship of size of banks and networking capital to net assets with
liquidity risk in both models. In addition capital adequacy ratio in conventional banks and
return on asset in Islamic banks were found positive and significant.
NormaizatulAkmaSaidi, AnnuarMd Nassir, Mohamed HishamYahya and Amalina
Abdullah (2011) Conducted research on Islamic and Conventional banks: An empirical study
of liquidity risk. The aim of this study was to examine the liquidity risk for Islamic and
conventional banks in south Asia. For this purpose they obtained data of all Islamic and
conventional banks of four countries of south Asia for the period of Five years starting from
17
2010 to 2014. Data was collected from income statements and balance sheet. They used
liquidity ratio to measure the liquidity risk and descriptive statistics was used to compare the
liquidity risk between conventional banks and Islamic banks. They found that Islamic banks
exposed to higher liquidity risk than conventional banks.

CHAPTER 3
METHODOLOGY ; DATA
This chapter explain the framework of the research, sources and approaches of data collection,
techniques of data analysis, model description and description of variables.
3.1 Population
All Islamic and conventional banks operating in Pakistan.
3.2 Sample Selection
All Islamic banks and conventional banks are selected except for few small or public
sector banks.
3.3 Data collection Method
Secondary data was collected from the annual reports of sampled banks which are obtained
from state bank website for the period 2007 – 2016.
3.4 Model
Financial performance index for banks is calculated by following Model.
Where is prescribed for weight for bank for time T. , , , , and
are the CAMEL performance parameters for bank at time T.
After that banks are ranked according to FPI values and then banks progress is calculated by
progress Ratio.
It shows the progress of particular bank with respect to its base year. All CAMEL ratios are
averaged to get Component value and finally averaged all component value to get Composite
value of bank.
21
Component Value is calculated as
? ( ) ( )
Composite Value is calculated as
Here is Component value of each category in CMELS ratio. Is weight assigned to
individual ratio in each component of CAMEL.
R is Value of each ratio in CAMELS
LL Is Lower Limit (minimum Ratio in All banks)
UL is upper limit (maximum ratio in all banks)
All performance parameters are ranked according to prescribed weight
3.5 Data Analysis Technique
Data of banks is analyzed by applying CAMELS test and ranking techniques to
examine banks performance. After calculating the ratio, construct the financial performance
index by using CAMELS parameters. Each parameter is assigned a particular weight. Equal
weights are assigned to CAMELS parameters including asset quality, earning, Capital
adequacy and sensitivity to risk because three factor help in growth, efficiency and survival of
banks, lesser weight assigned to management and liquidity because high liquidity reduce bank
profitability of banks.
3.6 Variable Description
The purpose of this study is to examine the financial performance of Islamic banks
and conventional banks in Pakistan during the period 2007-2016. Therefore the variables are
divided into two categories dependent variables and independent variables.
By keeping in view the research question and objectives, it is decided that financial
performance index is dependent variable and Capital Adequacy, Asset Quality, Management,
Earning and liquidity are independent variables.
22
3.6.1 Dependent Variable
3.6.1.1 Financial Performance Index
Financial Performance index is used to measure the financial performance of any
organization.

CHAPTER 4
EMPIRICAL RESULTS AND ANALYSIS
This Chapter of the study, I have discussed the analysis and interpretation of data used in this
study. There are two main part of this section – the first part covers the ranking of banks on
the basis of financial performance index (FPI) and second part covers the banks progress
ratios. CAMEL model is used in this study. The data used in this study is secondary data
collected from website of State bank of Pakistan. The data was collected for these variables:
Capital Adequacy, Asset quality, Management, Earning and liquidity. The period covered was
from 2007 to 2016.
4.1 Ranking of banks on the basis of FPI
Banks were ranked according to the composite value of Bank. On the basis of this
ranking bank al Habib is ranked at first position in 2007, 2009 and 2010. Muslim Commercial
Bank is ranked at top position from 2010 to 2011, after that its performance decrease in 2012.
But it continuously improves performance and remained at top position again from 2013 to
2016.
On the other hand Habib bank limited, united bank limited, standard chartered and National
bank remain at second and third position in 2012 to 2016.
Islamic banks are lower position in term of performance than conventional banks during
sample time span. Meezan bank and Dubai Islamic Bank remain at sixth and seven positions
during 2008 to 2016. Other Islamic banks are also remained in bottom.
4.1.1 Construction of Composite FPI
Composite FPI shows the average performance of all banks from 2007 to 2016. Composite
FPI is calculated by average of all year’s value.
24
According to the ranking of banks on the basis of composite FPI, MCB was at 1st position,
Fysal bank is ranked at 2nd position, silk bank at 3rd position, bank AL habib at the 4th ranked,
HBL is ranked at 5th position and UBL is ranked at 6th position.
On the other hand, Islamic Banks such as Meezan Bank, Dubai Islamic bank, Albaraka bank
stood at 13th, 14th and 8th position, respectively. So we can say that Conventional banks are
performing well in all CAMEL parameters. Such as Capital Adequacy, Asset Quality,
Management, Earning and Liquidity.

CHAPTER 05
CONCLUSION
5.1 Background
The performance of Islamic and conventional banks was compared by using CAMEL
model. Performance was evaluating such as Capital adequacy, Asset quality, Management
and Liquidity. In this study FPI was constructed to measure the performance of banks that
was based on CAMEL model. CAMEL Model as a tool is very effective and accurate to be
used as performance evaluate in banking Sector. It suggest to measure to improve the
weakness of banks.
5.2 Key Findings
In the ranking conventional banks remained top of the list. Top Five performing banks
in all parameters of CAMEL are MCB, Faysal bank, Bank Al Habib, UBL and HBL. The
worst three performers are summit bank, Silk bank and JS bank.
Whereas, most of the Islamic banks stood after the 10th rank. A reason could be shorter age
and experience because they start their business in Pakistan from 2003.
Bank progress ratio shows the performance one bank in 2016 with respect to base year 2007.
Progress ratio indicates that Conventional banks are performing better in 2016 as compared to
the base year 2007. On the other hand, Islamic bank also performed well in 2016.
In the light of empirical result, it is found that during the year 2007-2016 Conventional banks
performed better than Islamic bank in term of financial performance index, whereas Islamic
banks and Conventional banks both are performed well in term of progress ratio.
5.3 Limitation & Future Direction
This Study is limited to the banks operating in Pakistan only for the time period of 2007-
2016. The finding of this study cannot be generalized for all Islamic and Conventional banks
outside the Pakistan. The intent of this study is restricted to the capital adequacy, asset
quality, management, earnings and Liquidity. In future, the research can be done on the
29
comparative analysis of Islamic and Conventional banks by incorporating the market risk.
Further researcher can also continue research on this issue from 2016.
