Funding for Higher Learning Institutions (HLIs) in Malaysia has become increasingly constrained as the government faces increasing costs and global economic slowdown. Central to this issue is the challenge to raise the funds needed to sustain HLIs’ operations and development. It has therefore become a necessity for HLIs to come up with innovative ways to raise funds and move towards to becoming more self-sustainable. Malaysia can possibly learn from HLIs in the UK, US, and Australia where universities have managed to obtain funds through the capital market by issuing bonds. This paper focuses on exploring alternative financing modes for HLIs through Socially Responsible Investment (SRI) sukuk and Social Impact Bonds (SIBs). The methods utilized in this study are critical review of literature, case study analyses and interview sessions with experts.
