Introduction

Islamic Finance has been wrongly indicated as simply an interest free financial system, which is not

entirely accurate as it is a faith based system that involves other important principles, which encourage

entrepreneurship, risk-taking, transparency, preservation of property rights and ethical values such as

justice, fair dealing and fair pricing, mutual cooperation and respect of the other contracting parties.

The ethical credentials of Islamic Financial Institutions make them attractive to not only Muslims

but to also a wide spectrum of ethically-conscious consumers who desire a socially responsible financial

system. There are many people nationally and internationally today who wish to invest in a way that does

not compromise their religious and belief and that makes the world a better place.

This paper aims at providing a basic definition of Socially Responsible Investing and Islamic Mutual

Funds with more focus on Islamic Funds. It gives a brief about the historical background of these types of

investments. It relies on important statistics that show the size and the fast growth of such investments.

This paper also will explore the screening mechanisms adopted to verify that the concerned fund is

satisfying the preconditions and criteria set, to be considered as SRI or Islamic. Also, performance, fees, and

benchmarks will be briefly discussed. Comparison between these types of investment and non-ethical

funds will be introduced.

We try to introduce examples whenever possible. Although this study s scope is a global scale,

most of the examples are extracted from Saudi market as much as possible.

The paper ends with a presentation of performance analysis of one important Islamic Fund. Weselected CIMB Islamic Equity Fund because the available information.

Definitions

Socially Responsible Investment (SRI)

An investment that is considered socially responsible because of the nature of the business the

company conducts. Common themes for socially responsible investments include avoiding investment in

companies that produce or sell addictive substances (like alcohol, gambling and tobacco) and seeking outcompanies engaged in environmental sustainability and alternative energy/clean technology efforts.

Socially responsible investments can be made in individual companies or through a socially conscious

mutual fund or exchange-traded fund (ETF).

From investor standpoint, SRI refers to the type of investment practice whereby investors attempt

to align social and environmental concerns with their financial goals. Investors achieve these goals by

utilizing three main investing strategies - namely through investment screening, community investment,

and shareholder advocacy. The concept goes by names like sustainable investing, impact investing, and

community investing, ethical investing, and socially-conscious investing. It is a non-financial gauge that is

used when selecting various investment options that takes into account factors such as environmental,

social, and ethical values.

The specific practices investors try to avoid when selecting securities based on socially responsibleprinciples includes, among others, the following:

Companies that sell or promote addictive substances like tobacco, alcohol, or gambling. Organizations with a history of polluting the environment. Businesses that refuse to take humane labor practices seriously. Firms that trade in weapons or support international military action.Though some mutual funds claim to be socially responsible, it is generally recommended that social

investors look for third-party verified SRI funds to ensure that the social claims are true and accurate. Lists

like Social Funds, Global100, The FTSE4Good Index Series, and those maintained by the Social Investment

Forum provide a start for socially responsible investors.

Islamic Mutual Fund

The fact that Islamic laws prohibit paying and receiving interest doesn't mean that they frown on

making money or encourage reverting to an all-cash or barter economy. At its core, Islamic finance is about

linking the return to productivity and the quality of the project, thereby ensuring a more equitable

distribution of wealth, based around a contract that manages risk.

Islamic Mutual Fund is a unique form of SRI based on Shariah law. In addition to the keeping out of

certain sectors, such funds do not deal any business or transactions involving interest either with or

without risk, derivatives, selling short, music industry, cinema, any activity related to pork or any otheractivity that contradicts with Shariah.

Islamic equity funds (IEFs) are similar to traditional equity funds in that investors pool their funds to

invest in shares. However, the main difference between IEFs and standard equity funds is that investors in

IEFs earn halal profits in strict conformity with the precepts of Islamic Shariah.

Bit of history

Although not formally given this name, Socially Responsible Investing has been around for some

time. The history tells us that the Islamic, Christian, and Jewish religions have encouraged and embracedeconomic actions that coincided directly with their beliefs. In the 1500s, groups such as the Quakers in the

US colonies engaged in an early form ofsocial investing again, by using their core principles as a guide.

Most people attribute the rise of todays SRI to the 1920s time period. During this decade, some

churches encouraged individuals not to invest in companies that made money through gambling, tobacco,

and alcohol. The year 1928 witnessed the first SRI, The Pioneer Fund.

Fast forward a few decades to the 1960s, and it was the Vietnam War, the civil rights movement,

and environmental issues that caused individuals to think about their investment practices in a thoughtful

manner.

However, one of the more popular success stories with respect to SRI in the last 20 years was the

end of Apartheid in South Africa. This feat was brought about in large part because investors chose not to

invest in South Africa under the current unacceptable social conditions.For many years, environmental issues have been a concern of investors as have other social issues

such as tobacco, gambling, alcohol, labor rights, and human rights. The catastrophes at Chernobyl, Bhopal,

and certainly the Exxon Valdez oil spill, made many investors to call on corporations to improve their

environmental conduct.

Socially Responsible Investing began as mainly a negative screening activity whereby investors

would avoid companies that were actively involved with activities the investors considered to be

undesirable. However, nowadays, there is more of a shift towards positive screening.

Other changes in Socially Responsible Investing can be attributed to the general growth of the

industry. For instance, there now are a variety of SRI investments that are being offered and the number of

social and environmental issues that are being addressed have increased as well.

Islamic finance is a relatively young but fast developing area of finance in recent times. Although

the concept is as old as the religion itself, modern Shariah banking and investment industry really took offin the 1960s with the launch of the Social Bank in Egypt and started to grow exponentially in the 1970s and

1980s with the development of Islamic banks in GCC countries (e.g. the Islamic Development Bank and

Dubai Islamic Bank).

Islamic or Shariah compliant funds first appeared in the late 1960s in Malaysia and in the mid-

1970s in the Middle East region. Their creation was driven mainly by individuals, who were attracted by the

idea of faith-based investments.

The current Status

In the last decade the SRI and Islamic Funds has increasingly gained importance. Although the

political changes currently occurring in MENA (Arabic Spring), bear high risks in front of investment in

general, we think it bears also great opportunities for SRI and Islamic Funds industry because Arabic

societies, unlike before, will have major impacts on the national decisions.

Shariah sensitive investors tend to park money with banks rather than investing in Islamic Funds

which constitute only 5.6% of the US$1 trillion industry.

The above chart shows:

- There are big opportunities for Islamic Funds to grow.- Islamic Funds need to market themselves more- Many Muslims are not convinced to invest in Islamic Funds.

A thorough study to analyze this big gap is crucial.

Near past, the global Islamic Fund management industry expanded by 7.6% in 2010, reaching

US$58 billion in AuM; 13% higher than 2008.

Except the case of Malaysia, the over dependence on a few institutional investors is a key

structural weakness in Islamic markets globally.

Equity dominates the overall AuM which remains concentrated in traditional asset classes.

Global commodity prices continued to rise in 2010 albeit at a slower pace than in 2009; the surge ingold and silver prices accounts for more than 80% of the Islamic Commodity Funds performance.

Screening Mechanisms

The vast majority of Shariah scholars are in agreement that investment in stocks are allowed,

provided they meet certain criteria designed to minimize un-Islamic activities (since eliminating them

would be impossible in most cases). These criteria were designed to help Muslims participate in the growth

of equity markets while at the same time adhere to their religious beliefs.

Shariah scholars continue to push for uniform rulings on investment guidelines and the need to

develop equity markets in Muslim countries.

Screening Criteria

Shariah Compliant Screens:Shariah encourages the use of profit sharing and partnership schemes, and forbids riba (interest),

maysir (gambling and pure games of chance), and gharar (selling something that is not owned or that

cannot be described in accurate detail; i.e., in terms of type, size, and amount).

For example: stocks whose core activities are or are related to the following are excluded:

Banking, insurance or any other interest related activity. Alcohol, tobacco, gaming (gambling). Any activity related to pork. Activities deemed offensive to Islam. Sectors/companies significantly affected by the above based on a threshold of 5% ofoperating

income (according to some scholars).

Financial Screen:Debt ratio:

If a companys Interest-Bearing Debt divided by Assets is equal to or greater than 33.33% it is

excluded (


8/18


Dividend Cleansing:"Tainted dividend" receipts relate to the portion, if any, of a dividend paid by a company that has

been determined to be attributable to activities that are not in accordance with Islamic Shariah principles

and therefore should be donated to a proper charity or charities.

Reasons for the development of Islamic Indices: Fund managers needed to benchmark their performance against an Islamic peer. Created an opportunity to develop new Islamic products based off indices (i.e. index funds). Increased awareness and interest by both fund managers and investors.

There are famous Islamic indices like, DJIM & FTSE Global Islamic Index: group of Shariah board &Quarterly review.

In Saudi Arabia, most of the investors follow independent Fatwa from famous Shariah scholars, like: Dr. Abdulrahman Alatram. Dr. AbdulAziz Alfozan, http://main.islammessage.com/newspage.aspx?id=9663 Dr. Yosef AlShubaily, http://www.shubily.com/index.php?news=348 Dr. Mohammad AlOsaimi, http://www.halal2.com/main.asp?id=75These scholars are widely accepted within Saudi Arabia and GCC. They study all the companies

listed in the Saudi stocks markets and evaluate whether it is compliant with Shariah or not. The latter three

issue lists and publish it in their websites. These lists show the following: Clean Islamic Stocks: these stocks are proven to be compliant with Shariah no need for any

cleansing Tadheer.

Mixed Islamic Stocks: in these stocks, 95% of its activities (or more) are Shariah compliant. Inthis case cleansing Tadheer is required.

Cleansing ratio for Mixed stocks. The excluded stocks (which are not listed) are not compliant with Shariah. So they are prohibited.These lists are updated, at least, quarterly.

9/18


Many banks and financial institutions hire a Shariah/Islamic Advisor, to be responsible for:

Establishing guidelines. Monitoring fund operations (usually done in quarterly reviews). Making updates to guidelines when and if needed. Setting proper accounting/dividend cleansing procedures. Offering investors peace of mind knowing that their investments are managed properly.

SRI Screening

SRI investors generally stayed clear of companies that made more than five percent of revenuefrom tobacco, alcohol, and nuclear or military weapons. The mainstream investment community is (now)

examining the opportunities associated with sustainability promoting companies, technologies and

investment funds. This ranges from clean-tech, to renewables and ecosystem services.

The ERAFP SRI screening is based upon five principles:

a.Human rights, including nondiscrimination, freedom of expression, the fight against corruptionand money laundering.

b.Social progress, including compliance with fundamental rules of labor law and contribution toprofessional development.

c.Democratic labor environment, including the respect of employee rights and employeerepresentatives.

d.Environment, including activity environment impact and the existence of environmental riskmanagement plans.e.Good governance and transparency, including the correct application of legal and fiscal rules,

compliance with ethical rules and the transparency about operations and financial performance.

Those criteria mostly serve in a best-inclass approach, by selecting assets that obtained the highest

rating towards those criteria within an investment sector.

Performance Measurement, Fees, and Benchmarks

We strongly believe that evaluating the performance of SRI and Islamic Funds should address two

aspects:1.The extent to which the fund is Socially responsible. In case of Islamic Fund, the extent to which thefund is Islamic (Shariah compliant). In this aspect, people are differ in their degree of sensitivity to the

finds that are not pure Islamic. So, there is a real weight of subjectivity here. Even Shariah Fatwa

differ a lot in this regard. Some scholars allow up to (5%-15%) interest rate, with purification. Also,

some Shariah scholars consider all the current models of insurance is not Islamic Haram.

2.Financial and economic analysis: in this dimension, there is no big difference with the non-ethicalfunds. Same methods can be applied. The only difference is that in the case of SRI, the financial value

constitutes part of the overall fund evaluation.

So, evaluating these types of fund should go through two consequence phases:

o Phase 1, Measuring SRI-level or Shariah-Compliant: studying the fund from this standpoint,consulting specialist (including Shariah scholar) to reach to good estimation. Then based on that theinvestor set the threshold as per his believe. Based on that the investors set a value for each fund. We are

presenting this value as per the following equation:

The value= (*I)

While

: the sensitivity (%) of the investor to non-Islamic fund.

I: the degree (%) to which the fund is adhering to Shariah, as per Shariah scholar or Fatwas, the

investors considering them as the best Islamic opinion about the fund.

(Up to our best knowledge, this is a new formula, which needs to be verified and tested)


10/18


We believe that this type of valuation for this type of funds is very crucial as it measures one of the

main objectives behind selecting these types of funds.

o Phase 2, measuring the financial performance for those funds passed the first stage.By applying this method Muslim investors can evaluate the fund in an integrated manner that suits

his believe. The same can be applied to SRI.

There are some studies measuring the performance of Islamic Mutual Funds, however, they are still

few comparing to the studies on the non-ethical ones. The following are some important studies that focus

on measuring the performance Islamic Funds:Annuar, Shamsher and Ngu (1997), that assessed the performance of 31 Malaysian mutual funds

for the period 1990-1995 by using the Treynor and Mazuy model (1966). They concluded from the study

that there is evidence that the Malaysian funds used as objects of study did outperform their benchmark,

but were poor at timing the market (the results are biased as the study includes some of the non-ethical

funds).

Elfakhani and Hassan (2005), examine the performance of Islamic Mutual Funds by using sampleof 46 Islamic Mutual Funds which classified into eight sector-based categories based on their regional or

sector investment exposure. Those categories are Global equity funds, American equity funds, European

equity funds, Asian equity funds, Malaysian equity funds, Emerging markets equity funds, Emerging

markets-South Africa and Small Cap/Technology funds. They compared the performance of those funds to

two benchmarks which are Islamic index and the non-ethical ones. The results are somewhat consistentacross the different measures and benchmarks. The Emerging markets funds category shows the best

performance among all other samples over the whole study period, followed by the American and the

Emerging markets-South Africa in the next position, while the worst performer on this study is Asian equity

funds. Of the total samples, 29 funds are consistently over-performing the market; while 11 funds are over-

perform depending on the used performance measures and benchmark. Another finding on their study is

that the performance of the Islamic Mutual Funds compared to both used benchmarks is better in the

decline period compared to the booming one. This implies that the performance of the Islamic Mutual

Funds is improving with the time.

The study affirmed that the establishment of a credible equity benchmarks by Dow Jones Islamic

Market Index (DJMI) and FTSE Islamic Index Series, followed by the Malaysian Kuala Lumpur Shariah Index,

has been a turning point for the industry, giving both Islamic and Non-ethical investors a benchmark to use

for comparison.

The study concluded that:

The emerging markets fund category shows the best performance among all sampled eightIslamic Mutual Funds categories.

The Asian fund category shows the worst performance. The American and the emerging market-South Africa fund categories follow respectively the

emerging markets category.

Therefore, the main conclusion of this study was that the behavior of Islamic Mutual Funds did not

differ from that of other non-ethical funds, with some Shariah compliant mutual funds over-performing

their benchmarks and others under-performing them.

Hayat (2006), on his study about the empirical assessment of Islamic Equity Fund Returns foundthat there is no significant difference when comparing the total returns of non-ethical and Islamicbenchmarks. Furthermore he concluded that the Islamic Equity Funds have empirically outperformed their

Islamic as well as non-ethical benchmarks during 2002. The main possible reason for this out performance

mainly lies in the fact that the funds hold sizable amounts of cash and thus co vary little with the market,

which also seems to hold in bear market conditions.

Abdullah & et al (2007), found very interesting phenomena that needs more research to confirmit and if confirmed, analyzing the root causes behind such findings. The phenomena is that Islamic Funds

performed better than the non-ethical funds during bearish economic trends while, non-ethical funds

showed better performance than Islamic Funds during bulls conditions.

Benchmarking

There are many indexes that are considered to be Shariah compliant around the globe. These

indexes use as a benchmark for Islamic Funds. Some of indexes from different countries:

Dow Jones Islamic Market Index, FTSE Islamic Market Index Series, Malaysian Kuala Lumpur Shariah

Index, Jakarta Islamic Index, HK Islamic Index and KMI 30 Index.

In Saudi market, there are three indexes which are indicated as Shariah compliant:

1. Falcom, F30 Saudi Equity Index.2. Falcom Petrochemical ETF.3. HSBC Amanah Saudi 20 Equity Index.

We will discuss Falcom, F30 in more detail in the following Section:

The following criteria will be assessed on the quarterly maintenance:

1. Shariah compliant (screen 1) as per Falcoms Shariah screening.2. For each stock to be eligible, non trading days in the Saudi Stock Exchange (Tadawul) must not

exceed 7 trading days during the past quarter (screen 2).

3. Top 30 floating market capitalization stocks. The stocks should also be member of Tadawul public.TADAWUL SYMBOL COMPANY NAME TRADING NAME

investors.

The Fees

The fee varies as per the type of the fund. For summary we will take one important Shariah-

compliant fund.

Al Rajhi GCC Shares Capital Protected Fund (90%) (Closed - End Fund) impose the following types of

fees:

Non-refundable fee at a maximum rate of 2% of the value of each subscription. Management expenses, including Board of Directors remuneration, audit fees, provided that

such expenses shall not exceed a maximum of SAR 105,000 annually. (These expenses are calculated in

advance at the commencement of the fund and set aside for annual expenses. Any unspent portion of the

money will be returned to the fund at the maturity date).


13/18


Comparison with Non-Ethical

An Islamic Mutual Fund is similar to a non-ethical mutual fund in many ways; however, unlike its

non-ethical counterpart, an Islamic Mutual Fund must conform to the Shariah investment precepts.

The Shariah guidelines and principles govern several aspects of an Islamic Mutual Fund, including

its asset allocation (portfolio screening), investment and trading practices and income distribution

(purification).

When selecting investments for their portfolio (asset allocation), non-ethical mutual funds can

freely choose between debt-bearing investments and profit-bearing investments, and invest across all

available industries. An Islamic Mutual Fund, however, must set up screens in order to select those

companies that meet its qualitative and quantitative criteria set by Shariah guidelines as described earlier.

Also, Islamic Mutual Funds cannot trade on margin; in other words, they cannot use interest-paying debt to

finance their investments. It is also not permissible to engage in sale and repurchase agreements.

Unlike non-ethical mutual fund managers, Islamic Fund Managers are not allowed to speculate. An

Islamic economic unit is expected to assume risk after making a proper assessment of risk. Only in the

absence of information or under conditions of uncertainty is speculation akin to a game of chance and is

reprehensible.

Conclusion

Due to the difference in nature between SRI and non-ethical funds, performance measurement,

fees, benchmarks and screening will differ. This paper is a try to introduce a definition for SRI and Islamic

Funds and highlight the differences with more focus on Islamic Fund as a special form of SRI.

In evaluating the performance of SRI or Islamic Funds, it is primitive to evaluate the extent to which

the fund is SRI or Islamic. A 2-phase method for evaluating the performance of Islamic or SRI Fund has been

introduced.

According to many articles we come across, the performance of SRI or Islamic Funds does not show

big difference than conventional funds. In 2008 recession period both types were affected badly. However

it seems that Islamic Funds performed better than the non-ethical funds during bearish economic trends

while, non-ethical funds showed better performance than Islamic Funds during bulls conditions.
