Abstract
The purpose of this study is to determine the Gap between the
assets and the liabilities of Islamic and conventional banks. It also finds the
impact of liquidity risk, capital adequacy, management efficiency, operating
cost, and transaction size on net interest margin for Conventional Banks
(CBs) and net profit margin for Islamic Banks (IBs) in Pakistan, Malaysia,
Bahrain, and UAE. Short-term and long-term assets and liabilities gap is
further emphasized in this study. Data were extracted from the financial
statements of both types of banks for the period of 2008-2014. This study
finds that there is a negative short-term gap for both types of banks while
the long-term gap for both types of banks is positive. Results show that the
operating cost is an important factor which affects the profit margins and
progress quality of the management of banks. Finally, the overall results
show that the CBs have better assets and liabilities structure of profitable
assets at low cost liabilities.
