UAE Takaful Market Trends:

Regulatory Support and Strengthening of Legal Frameworks

By establishing legislative frameworks that support the establishment of Islamic insurance, the UAE government has significantly contributed to the development of the takaful sector. The UAE Insurance Authority (IA) ensures that takaful operators follow Sharia law and industry best practices by defining clear standards. According to article 33 of Federal Decree Law No (48) of 2023 regarding the Regulation of Insurance Activities, for example, the Central Bank of the UAE (CBUAE), in October 2024, banned a takaful insurer from issuing new health and auto insurance contracts, including renewals, in October 2024 because the insurer did not meet minimum capital requirements. The insurer remains liable for all obligations under existing contracts. The CBUAE has given the insurer six months to address its solvency position and comply with regulatory requirements. The regulatory framework has increased customer confidence and transparency, which has made it simpler for both domestic and foreign companies to enter the market. A more favorable market environment is created by proactive regulation, which benefits operators by enforcing rules consistently and establishing clearer compliance requirements. The expansion of the UAE takaful market and its long-term viability depend heavily on this stability.

Technological Advancements and Digital Transformation

The UAE takaful market is changing significantly as a result of technological advancements. The emergence of digital platforms has made it possible for takaful businesses to provide their clients with more accessible and convenient services. Digital tools, internet portals, and mobile applications have made customer service, claims processing, and the purchasing process more efficient. These technologies' adoption is especially attractive to younger, tech-savvy consumers who value efficiency and convenience. Furthermore, takaful organizations can enhance their service offerings by improving pricing models, risk assessments, and underwriting procedures through the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and sophisticated analytics. These technological advancements are fostering the UAE takaful market growth by improving operational efficiency and customer satisfaction. For instance, in June 2025, Milliman, which provides Takaful solutions, won two 2025 InsuranceERM Awards for its software, Milliman Mind: "End-user computing risk management solution of the year" and "Best use of cloud technology." This no-code solution simplifies financial modeling for actuaries, enhancing productivity without writing code. The awards recognize Milliman Mind's innovative approach to actuarial processes .
