Abstract: This study attempts to identify the company-specific factors that affect the net investment margin (NIM) in the Islamic banking industry of Bangladesh. Research period covers 2010 to 2022. The data type for the study is unbalanced panel data. The paper evaluates the link between the NIM and six possible exogenous variables. According to the Hausman test, random effects model is applied to analyze the dataset. As per our estimations, ROA, ROE, and liquidity have a positive and significant relationship with NIM. On the other hand, our findings indicate a strong negative relationship between CRAR and NIM. Moreover, there is a minor but favorable relationship between the bank size and NIM.
