Abstract

The paper proposes a new approach for allocating financial resources in the context of the Egyptian culture and the participation of Egyptian investors. It uses an improved capital asset pricing model (ICAPM) to maximize the utility of the capital allocation to satisfy all society categories' needs requiring the priority for subsistence needs, and to remunerate investors from the cost of capital and profits of public and private projects which satisfy those society needs. A model is developed to maximize two target functions using Tora statistical program, based on the relationship between the three categories of demand to be satisfied for society needs (Subsistence, Comfort and Luxuries) as independent variables, and the two investors’ remunerations; the cost of capital of each demand and the expected profit as a risk measure as dependent factors which encourage investors to finance enterprises and satisfy all demands. To build the model, the three categories of demand and investments are estimated from the available historical data. The results show that the improved model, by using its dependent and independent variables for capital allocation, maximizes the benefits of society capital in satisfying its demand needs than that of the CAPM which depends on risk and the rate of return without considering the societal factors. Based on the findings, we recommend that the ICAPM be applied in Faisal Islamic Bank of Egypt and Egyptian Saudi Finance Bank, especially for financing small and medium enterprises and in constructing Subsistence and Comfort projects, for testing and improving the model in real application. We are also recommending that there are many empirical tests to be conducted to examine and verify relationships between all factors in the improved model. Such as the aggregate value of Nisab and the value of aggregate Zakat-ul-mal as independent factors, and the three categories of demand as dependent factors.
