The research observes that Islamic banking has made unprecedented progress over recent years. In Indonesia specifically, they had been increasing their assets by an average of 43% annually since 2007, and their share of the banking sector’s total assets is growing fast.  Focusing on those asset growth, this research aims to compare it to the main banking system used, which is Non-Islamic banks or Conventional banks, by focusing on the asset side of the financial performance.
