  2. Financial Performance: Return on Average Assets (ROAA), Return on Average Equity (ROAE), Cost-to-Income Ratio (CIR), Assets Growth
  3. Governance and Social Responsibility: Financial Disclosure Index, CSR Disclosure

 

The data employed in creating the assessment framework has been collated from the ICD Thomson Reuters Islamic Finance Development Indicator and Orbis Bank Focus. The data will also shape the Leaderboard aggregate rankings, which will be composed of a weighted index of the various aforementioned metrics – with the view to eliminating data biases.
