Takaful refers to a sharia-compliant insurance system through which members mutually contribute a sum of money, so as to support each other in case of a loss, damage or theft. The objective of takaful is to cooperate, live harmoniously amongst the community and protect each other against uncertain mishaps. The policyholders of takaful contributes regularly on monetary basis which are supervised and managed by a takaful management firm. Nonetheless, the surplus amount invested is then employed for making investments which are helpful for earning a higher profit for the policyholders.

Global Takaful Market Drivers/Constraints:

• Takaful is rapidly gaining momentum, particularly in the Asia Pacific and the GCC region, owing to a large Muslim population. Muslims currently account for a fifth of the total global population and these levels are expected to further increase in the future.
• Another major driver of the market is that, in contrast to Western countries, the majority of the world’s Muslim population is young with 60% of this entire population being less than 25 years of age. Catalysed by rising levels of affluence, this large young Muslim population has the potential to represent a customer base for a fairly long duration if it is captured early.
• The penetration of conventional insurance is relatively low in affluent Muslim regions like the GCC. As a result, Takaful is perceived as a key instrument to raise insurance awareness and has huge opportunities in these countries.
• Catalysed by factors such as an ethical investment policy, strong growth prospects and price competitiveness, Takaful represents a strong business proposition and has a significant share of non-Muslim customers as well.
