Abstract

This study sought to evaluate the financial performance of Islamic commercial banks in Indonesia from 2018 to 2022, with a specific focus on Sharia compliance and profitability. Secondary data taken from the annual reports of commercial Islamic banks during the specified period were used and a descriptive quantitative approach was adopted. The study population consisted of all 13 Islamic commercial banks registered with the Financial Services Authority in 2022; eight banks were chosen as the research sample. The analysis method used encompasses both Sharia compliance and profitability and is called the Sharia Compliance and Profitability Model. For further analysis, the research findings were divided into four quadrants. The results of the study showed how different Islamic commercial banks in Indonesia performed in terms of Sharia compliance and profitability. It identified banks that showed strong adherence to Sharia principles and high profitability, which could be used as benchmarks by other banks to improve their performance. In more detail, The findings of this research included 3 aspects, namely 1) Identification of Sharia Compliance, this study identified the parameters used to assess Sharia compliance, such as compliance with the principles regulated by the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) or equivalent Sharia regulatory institutions.
