Keywords:
Islamic banks, Capital adequacy ratio according to Basel III, Financing risksAbstract
This study aimed to know the possibility of applying the capital adequacy standard issued by Basel III in Islamic banks due to its great importance in managing financing risks, since financing risks are the greatest thing that can affect Islamic banks due to the diversity of their methods used in this field. To achieve the objectives of the study, the descriptive approach, the analytical approach and the case study approach were followed. The study concluded with a set of results, the most prominent of which is that the Islamic bank under study has adapted to the application of the capital adequacy standard according to Basel III to hedge against financing risks, which a large part of the total percentage is allocated to cover, although this standard is not suitable for the characteristics of these banks.
