This study focus on Islamic Rural Banking (IRB). IRB is a specific financial institution mainly operating in the rural or suburb area and 100% of its revenue comes from financing activities. It means credit risk taking is a key for its survival. We apply ARIMAX model to investigate the determinant of risk taking. The results indicate that risk taking are determined positively by NPF, BI-Rate and negatively by ROA. Leverage, Asset Management, CAR. For Arima, AR (1) and MA (1) are both significant. The future of Islamic rural banks will depend to a large extent on how well they manage its risk taking behaviour.} }
