IMB Islamic has named Indonesia as the market with the most potential for its sharia banking due to the country'€™s large Muslim population, and is therefore, expecting the country to contribute 30 percent to overall business by 2015. CIMB Islamic is the Islamic banking unit of the CIMB Group, the Malaysian-based bank franchise that provides both conventional and sharia banking services. CIMB Group operates in Indonesia through its local arm, CIMB Niaga, which similarly provides conventional services and Islamic banking services via CIMB Niaga Syariah. Badlisyah Abdul Ghani, the CEO of CIMB Islamic, said that CIMB Niaga Syariah contributed 3 percent to the overall assets of the Group'€™s Islamic banking business. '€œ[CIMB Niaga Syariah] also contributes roughly 6 percent to the Islamic business'€™s profit before tax [PBT],'€ he added.
