Financial Risk Management in Syariah Contracts: a Review of Current Literature
: Theoretically, the musyârakah, mudhârabah and murâbahah systems are the most ideal concept of profit loss sharing business. Musyârakah and mudhârabah are business contracts recognized since the beginning of Islamic history. In Musyârakah contract, each contracting parties are considered equal in their rights in doing business contract. This writing attempts to elaborate the latest views on financial risk in banking products. At the practical level, the writer concludes that musyârakah and mudhârabah constitute minor portion than murâbahah in the overall Syari'ah banking transactions. These products of Syari'ah banking tend to lead to moral hazard and adverse selection and thus agency theory and information asymmetrical explain the inherent problem well. In addition, the concept of profit-loss sharing according to the writer is still controversial which is also vulnarable to moral hazard
Ensuring good governance through parliamentary control of administrative agencies: A critique
Parliamentary institutions are central to most systems of government but their role within the structure of government varies from one country to another. Not only are there differences in terms of their specific powers, but also in measure of power/influence exercised within the framework of normative rules or legal system of a nation to guarantee good governance. The objectives of this paper are to overview parliaments around the world vis-à -vis their control of administrative agencies, especially in Britain and United States of America and to highlight the forms of control that the Nigerian National Assembly exerts on the administrative agencies. The writers rely on published and unpublished materials such as textbooks; articles in journals, conferences and work shop documents, law reports; newspapers; magazine; and internet facility. The paper concluded that the parliamentary control of administrative agencies depends largely on the type of parliamentary system being practiced either uni-cameral or bi-cameral legislature or even presidential or parliamentary. It is suggested that care must be taken not only to ensure that the electorates choose their proper representatives to National or State Assembly, but there should equally be good electoral laws to ensure that, the choice of the people are not defeated as a result of electoral fraud because the failure or success of a state depends largely on the nature of its legislators.Key words: Legislature, Good Governance, Oversight, Impeachment, Investigatio
