Hendri Tanjung, Agus Windiarto

Abstract


The aim of this paper is to examine the role of Cash Waqf Linked Sukuk (CWLS) in economic development and trade in Indonesia. This research is motivated by the fact that there is still limited financing to economic development in Indonesia as well as trade financing. The research based on a qualitative methodology using the data from scientific journals and paper in the field of Cash Waqf, including CWLS. The results cash waqf in several countries has been used for beneficiaries.  Especially for CWLS, it consists of 2 types, namely wakaf sukuk and retail waqf sukuk. For waqf sukuk, the proceeds of the waqf have been channelled to finance the construction of the retina center and glaucoma center at the hospital. Meanwhile, retail waqf sukuk are used by each nazir to finance the program. This research shows that CWLS is proven to play a role in economic development, particularly infrastructure. The infrastructure that has been built is in the health sector. CWLS can also be an alternative source of funds with low-cost of fund which in turn enables the Eximbank/ECA to extend trade financing to the cooperative with competitive price. However, there are some action need to be taken, i.e (i) conduct socialization regarding CWLS to improve public awareness and enlarge the wakif base and (ii) issue DSN regulations regarding CWLS.
