First, there is no difference between cities and municipal in Java in terms of income growth, market share growth and asset growth. Second, there are two clusters of BPRS in terms of income growth, market share growth and asset growth variables. This research can be benefited by government and regulators to design and implement the sharia bank development strategy.
