The framework, constituting a linkage between Islamic banks’ funding capacity and governments’ financing needs, is constructed using a money market approach.

This is the first paper that presents a framework dealing directly with Muslim states’ budget deficit and debt. The framework includes Islamic banks, public companies, the central bank, Ministry of Finance and the government.
