Abstract
The current study aims to examine the behavioural intentions to adopt Islamic banking in Pakistan. The proposed model is grounded on ‘Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB)’ which is widely applied in consumer behaviour studies. This theory comprises behavioural, normative and control belief structures which shape consumers’ intentions. The data collection was carried out from two cities of Pakistan, Islamabad and Rawalpindi, through survey from 186 individuals. For data collection, non-probability, judgmental sampling technique has been used. The data has been analysed by using Partial Lease Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) technique. The result of the study reveals that behavioural, normative and control beliefs are significant determinants of adoption of Islamic banking in Pakistan. It has been found that behavioural beliefs are very important for Islamic banking adoption. However, control beliefs appear to be the most significant in adoption of Islamic banking.
