Journal of Research in Islamic Economics, 1985, vol. 3, issue 1, 101-104 Abstract: The past decade has witnessed significant developments in the banking structure of the Arab World. The emergence of OPEC, the increase in oil revenues and accumulation of large reserves, led not only to an overall boom of economic activity in the petroleum exporting countries but also necessitated development of various financial and banking institutions. There was a need of new institutions to meet the requirements of accelerated financial transactions and to achieve the integration of national financial systems with the international monetary system. The development of various national banking institutions in the Arab World and establishment of several consortium banks was a response to this new situation. -- Date: 1985 Downloads: (external link) Related works: Export reference: BibTeX RIS (EndNote, ProCite, RefMan) HTML/Text Persistent link: https://EconPapers.repec.org/RePEc:abd:crieja:v:3:y:1985:i:1:no:10:p:101-104 Access Statistics for this article More articles in Journal of Research in Islamic Economics from King Abdulaziz University, Islamic Economics Institute.
