The objective of this study is to gain a better understanding of risk management and control practices at BMT UGT Nusantara, an Islamic microfinance institution in Indonesia, with a particular emphasis on financing risk, liquidity risk, and Sharia compliance risk. These three risks are said to occur frequently and have a direct impact on performance. Because of the uniqueness of the site, the design of this qualitative research is descriptive and exploratory with a holistic single-case approach. In-depth interviews, field observations, focus group discussions, and a review of supporting documents were used to collect data. Because the interactive cycle process includes data collection, data reduction, data presentation, and data withdrawal, data analysis employs an interactive model. The data was validated using the criteria of credibility, transferability, dependability, and confirmability. The study's findings show that BMT UGT Nusantara, an Islamic microfinance institution in Indonesia, employs traditional-partial risk management on financing risk, liquidity risk, and Sharia compliance risk. Risk management is carried out by integrating "macul bumi", or outward efforts based on sincerity, and "macul langit", or spiritual efforts. Furthermore, it employs information systems that play an important role in risk management in order to improve organizational performance and competitive advantage.    

The research aims to investigate and study the implementation of Sharia compliance and financial sustainability, especially at Bank Pembiayatan Rakyat Syariah (BPRS) or Sharia People's Financing Bank in Indonesia. For this reason, an empirical study is needed to determine the relationship between the Profit-Sharing Ratio and the Zakah Performance Ratio on Return on Assets in BPRS in Indonesia. The research method used is a quantitative approach using secondary data, and data analysis techniques using multiple regression. The research results show that partially the profit-sharing ratio has a significant effect on the return on assets of BPRS in Indonesia. On the other hand, the zakat performance ratio does not significantly influence the return on assets of BPRS in Indonesia. However, simultaneously or together the profit-sharing ratio and zakat profit ratio significantly affect the profitability of BPRS in Indonesia. Thus, the research is expected to provide a constructive contribution to the development of the world of science, for the government, for practitioners and others related to the implementation of Sharia compliance and financial sustainability of Sharia Financial Institutions in general, and of BPRS both globally and locally—Indonesia in particular. 

The objective of this study is to examine and analyze the influence of human resource (HR) practices in Islamic perspective on service performance. This study is carried out on Sharia Savings and Loans Cooperatives of Tamzis Bina Utama (TAMZIS) in the DIY Provinces, Indonesia. The data analysis is carried out using quantitative method with Structural Equation Modeling (SEM), and processed with SmartPLS software. The findings in this study indicate that there is a positive and significant relationship in: (1) Recruitment and selection in Islamic perspective on service performance; (2) Training and development in Islamic perspective on service performance; (3) Performance appraisal in Islamic perspective in on service performance; (4) Recruitment and selection in Islamic perspective on service performance moderated by Islamic principles; (5) Training and development in Islamic perspective on service performance moderated by Islamic principles. The findings also indicate that there is a negative and insignificant influence between performance appraisal in Islamic perspective on service performance moderated by Islamic principles in employees of Sharia Savings and Loans Cooperatives of Tamzis Bina Utama in the DIY Provinces, Indonesia.
