World's largest Islamic banks in 2020

Saudi Arabia-based Al Rajhi Bank retained its top spot as the largest Islamic bank, according to the evaluation of the 100 largest Islamic banks and financial holding companies (banks) in the world. This year, the financial information in the first half of the financial year 2020 (1H FY2020) was collated and incorporated into the assessment of how Islamic banks performed during the COVID-19 pandemic. Dubai Islamic Bank ranked second. The bank posted a strong asset growth of 29% after its acquisition of Noor Bank.

At the aggregate level, the total assets of Islamic banks on the list stood at $1.03 trillion, compared to $903.9 billion in the previous year’s evaluation, which was based on data in FY 2018. The overall profitability of Islamic banks weakened amid the pandemic. Aggregate net profit was down from $6.7 billion in 1H FY2019 to $5.3 billion in 1H FY2020. The aggregate total assets of Islamic banks from Malaysia, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Kuwait and Qatar account for 77% of the total assets of the 100 largest Islamic banks. Bahrain and Indonesia combined have 7.9% share of total bank assets, although there are 26 Islamic banks from these two countries.

World's largest Islamic banks in 2019

Saudi Arabia-based Al Rajhi Bank topped the ranking of the largest Islamic bank, according to the evaluation of the 100 largest Islamic banks and financial holding companies (banks) in the world for the financial year (FY) 2018, with a March 2019 cutoff. Only Islamic banks whose financial data was available in FY2018 were included in the ranking. Islamic or Sharia-based banking is guided by Islamic economics. Because it eschews the charging and paying of interest and trading of assets that are non-Shariah compliant or haram, it is considered a more equitable and sustainable form of finance and has also gained popularity outside the Muslim world.

Malaysia, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar and Kuwait are the largest markets in terms of Islamic bank assets, with their aggregate assets representing 79% of the combined assets of the 100 largest Islamic banks. The Islamic banks in Malaysia held six out of the top 20 ranks and 16 of the total 100. Notably, the combined assets of all Malaysian Islamic banks accounted for 23% of the 100 largest Islamic banks’ assets.
