Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to investigate the impact of the Indonesia Shariah-compliant Stock Index (ISSI) on the performance of included shares. In essence, the authors ask whether the establishment of the ISSI provides abnormal returns for the firms that are not included in the Jakarta Index.Design/methodology/approach: The authors use an event study methodology to estimate cumulative abnormal returns in the days surrounding the event to examine the relationship between Shariah-compliant investments and stock returns. The estimation window of 90 trading days prior to the event (-30) to day 60 after ( 60) is adopted. They also use a range of investment performance measures to provide new evidence on whether faith-based ethical investments generate superior performance compared to their unscreened benchmarks.Findings: Using daily returns, the Indonesia ISSI and panel data model, the findings show that the inclusion of the ISSI has a positive impact on the financial performance of the included shares during the 41-day event window. The evidence also suggests that the ethical investment has a significant influence on the performance of stock market returns.Research limitations/implications: This study offers insights to policymakers, investors and fund managers interested in the indices' performance. A key conclusion that could be derived by bodies that regulate Islamic products and services is that investors are not only concerned about what is profitable but also what makes their investments ethical.Originality/value: Although the global growth of the Islamic capital market products and services has been tremendous in recent years, very few studies focus on the Indonesian market and indeed, none of them devote sufficient attention to Shariah-compliant investments and stock returns.

The Sharia investment principles give Muslim investors a restriction in picking stocks under their investment portfolio. There are strict rules that must be followed to make a security or a company Sharia-compliant. The argument whether the performance of Sharia-compliant stocks is better compared to the conventional stocks still remains an open question. This paper aims to review and analyze whether Islamic stocks outperform Conventional stocks when the market is doing well (bull periods) and sustain better when the market is in the downturn (bear periods). Our finding shows a statistically insignificant difference in average return, market risk (beta), and total risk (standard deviation) between Islamic and Conventional stocks in both bull and bear periods. However, the data shows a consistent result that Islamic stocks return are higher during both bull and bear periods. Islamic stocks also show higher risk during bear periods proven with higher standard deviation and beta. However, it is less volatile during the bull period as compared to conventional stocks. Furthermore, the investigation of two types of stocks using risk-adjusted returns ratios shows that both stocks behave in a similar way. However, the Islamic stock market performed better than the conventional stock market during the bear 1 and bear 3 (Global financial crisis 2008) shown by higher performance in all three ratios although it is not statistically significant.

Market discipline has been well recognized as effective means for preventing excessive business risk taking. Nevertheless, as the nature of investment in Islamic Finance may not meet the required characteristics, the ability of market discipline to work in its particular instrument market still needs to be proven. This study employed mixed method to answer the research questions. The quantitative analysis was carried out using event study approach, while in qualitative research we gathered qualitative information using questionnaire and Focus Group Discussion (FGD), as well as interviews. This study utilized data of daily prices of some financial instruments traded in Indonesia, including conventional stocks, syariah-compliant stocks, bond, sukuk, conventional mutual fund, syariah-compliant mutual fund, IHSG, and Jakarta Islamic Index (JII). We employed 7-day, 30-day, 60-day, and 90-day windows around the date of the Islamic gold investment Scandal revelation in 2013, in both conventional and Islamic Finance markets. The qualitative study involved individual respondents, people in the relevant supervisory agencies, academicians, and professionals working in financial institutions. We find that market discipline works well only in Sukuk market and only in shorter period. We also find that negative market actions in both capital market segments may obscure the existence of market discipline. The qualitative study results show that insufficient capability of investors for assessing the investment credibility explains the empirical findings.

Among the requirement set by Otoritas Jasa Keuangan (OJK) for a company to be Sharia compliant is 40% limit on the financial leverage ratio. Taking the Islamic perspective on the limitation of using interest-bearing instrument both as a means of financing and investing, this paper attempts to investigate whether there is a significant relationship between financial leverage and performance of the company. 90 Sharia-compliant companies were selected as a sample in this study and data from 2011-2015 were taken to be observed. Several tests were applied to analyze the data; descriptive analysis, correlation analysis, and multiple regression analysis. Findings revealed that leverage factors (Debt/Asset, Debt/Capital, and ICR) have a significant negative impact to the company performance. However, the magnitude of effect and relations are small and limited. The finding in this study proves that the limitation of the interest-bearing instrument as a means for financing set for the sharia-compliant companies has a good impact on the performance though on a small scale. This negative effect of leverage factors can be explained by the disadvantage of potential financial distress that surpasses the benefit of tax shield from issuing debts.

This study assesses risk and return using Multi-index model, in which variables tested are the respective fundamental factors.
