Abstract
This article is a critique of Indonesia's first Islamic bank, Bank Muamalat Indonesia (BMI). Although supposedly a pure Islamic bank, regulators worry the BMI's deposits are being used in risky investments. Also, BMI is viewed as a political ploy of President Suharto to build up support in traditional Islamic circles and depositors are unaware of this use of their funds.
