  • This paper aims to study empirically the impact of Islamic and conventional corporate governance mechanisms on ethical performance through econometric panel data constructed from 17 Malaysian Islamic banks observed over 7 years from 2005 to 2011. The results indicate that there is a significant relationship between the ethical performance of Malaysian Islamic banks, measured by the Profit Sharing Ratio (PSR); the Zakat Performance Ratio (ZPR) and the Islamic Income versus Non-Islamic Income Ratio (IIVNIR), and the Islamic governance variables.
