ב"ה Interest Free Wage Linkage of Personal Loans and Mortgages
ثبت نشده
چکیده
A case for linkage without interest to the average wage is presented. The accuracy and stability of index formulae are examined and price linkage is compared to wage linkage. The linkage of personal loans and mortgages, and relevant Halachic questions are discussed. It is indicated how expressing the value of money in terms of time, can be used as a basis for encouraging honesty and discouraging fraud. The influences of different linkages on economic stability are described. Thanks to the staff and students at Jerusalem College of Technology-Machon Lev, to the rabbis and Torah scholars, to the colleagues, friends and my family, for their encouragement, comments, opposition and criticism. As there are many, I will not single out any one by name, but sincere thanks to everyone. Notice: It is permitted to copy this paper but only in its entirety.
