We answer this question by comparing Malaysian Islamic and conventional security prices and their response to macrofinancial factors. Our analysis suggests that Islamic and conventional bond and equity prices are driven by common factors. Likewise, especially in recent years, Islamic banks have responded to economic and financial shocks in the same way as conventional banks, suggesting that the gap between Islamic and conventional financial practices is shrinking.IMF working paper ;12/151.InvestmentsIslamic countriesInvestments, ForeignIslamic countriesElectronic books.InvestmentsInvestments, ForeignKrasicka Olga923461Nowak Sylwia923462MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910452605003321What's in It for me2072301UNINA
