Effective from 9/10/2019
  1. For Short-Term Products, Wakala or Mudaraba fees (as appropriate), to which the Participants’ Fund shall be charged, shall be determined at a maximum of 35% of the gross written takaful contributions and the revenue of participants’ investments, earned during the fiscal year. The Shareholders’ Fund shall bear all operating, general and administrative expenses of the takaful insurance operations, without charging the Participants’ Fund any expenses other than the percentage mentioned in this paragraph.

  2. For Long-Term Products, the Company shall determine Wakala fees in line with their expense requirement analysis prepared by the Actuary.
