Retraction: Driving Sustainable Innovation: Islamic Financial Literacy and Inclusion in the Five Southernmost Provinces of Thailand

Abstract

The Editor-in-Chief of the European Journal of Islamic Finance retracts the article “Driving Sustainable Innovation: Islamic Financial Literacy and Inclusion in the Five Southernmost Provinces of Thailand” by Asas Worasutr, Stephen E. Little, and Mohammed Abdel Haq, published in the European Journal of Islamic Finance, 11(3), 1–23 (2024), DOI: 10.13135/2421-2172/9019. Following a request from the corresponding author and the journal’s subsequent assessment, it was established that the article substantially overlaps with an earlier publication by Asas Worasutr in the Journal of Islamic Studies at Prince of Songkla University, which uses the same sample group and interview respondents. The Editor-in-Chief determined that this constitutes redundant/duplicate publication and that retraction is necessary to correct the scholarly record. The original EJIF article remains available in the scholarly record and is clearly identified as retracted.
