Improving the Methodology for Assessing the Development of Islamic Finance in Developing Countries

Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: The article analyses existing approaches to measuring the level of Islamic finance development in developing countries and identifies their main shortcomings: excessive focus on size, neglect of social outcomes, subjectivity in weighting, and data limitations. To address these problems, a five-block Integrated Islamic Finance Development Index (IMRI) methodology is proposed. The methodology includes the stages of normalisation, hybrid weighting, non-compensatory aggregation, robustness testing, and macroeconomic validation.
