I like your writing about Islamic Banking Risk Management. It's really helpful for me as a new comer in Islamic Risk Management. I used to work at market risk management conventional banks before. I want to know about risk measurement in islamic bank money market activities. Is there any risk for islamic MM? how to measure the risk? At this time, I use VaR calculation for CM (sukuk) and FX. All in Banking Book. But I don't know about MM. Because I learn that islamic Banks don't have interest rate risk. So, do we need measure money market risk? What about other specific risk for Islamic banking like markup risk, leased asset value risk and rate of return risk? Can you give me solution how to measure that risks? Maybe you can give me a reputable training provider especially for my questions above.
