    Ghosh, Saibal & Saggar, Mridul (1998), in the paper “Narrow Banking: Theory, Evidence and Prospect in India” examined the narrow banking in India and asserted that an increased presence of NPA forced banks to select tactics to reduce risk by investing in safe and liquid assets.

The major findings of the study is that even without a directive, narrow banking on the asset side is being practiced as part of the asset liability management of these banks.

The global financial crisis that the world experiences every once in a while as in 2008, was the cause of the increase of the number of researchers, as they are interested in studying the financial performances of both systems; knowing that these studies can help preventing the crisis that may happen in the future. Samad (2004) used profitability, liquidity risk, and credit risk in his search to counterweight the performance of the Islamic banks and commercial banks of Bahrain through the period of 1991-2001. By the use of the t-test he figured that there is no significant distinction in profitability and liquidity amidst Islamic banks and conventional banks. In addition, he pointed that regardless of the Islamic banks’ fresh entrance to the trade market they are giving the same performance as conventional banks.…
