Islamic finance & insurance.

Compliant on two sides at once, and in substance, not only in form.

The question it answers

Carved geometric screen, for the Islamic finance practice

You have a structure, and a board has called it Shari’a-compliant.

The question is whether it is compliant in substance, not only in form, and whether the same structure also holds under the securities or insurance law that governs it.

A certificate satisfies one authority. It does not answer the other.

How Hoot approaches it

Regulators & regimesShari’a boards and AAOIFI standards, with the CMA, DFSA or FSRA, and the takaful regime on the insurance side.
