| Abstract: |
The increasing interest in Fintech, Blockchain, and Digitalization in Islamic
Finance created a new area in the literature, requiring a systematic review of
these academic publications. The scope of the analysis is limited to journal
articles to understand the trends in the indexed journals. Results are
categorized into three sections, Islamic banks’ digitalization, Blockchain and
Crypto Assets research, and Islamic non-bank financial institutions’
digitalization. Islamic fintech has great potential mainly because of the
overlapping norms of Shariah and fintech, making it easier to implement
technological disruption into Islamic finance. Moreover, the trust shift to
Islamic finance could be merged with the opportunities of fintech and increase
the potential of Islamic fintech even more. |
