Why Choose This Course

The Shariah Compliance & Internal Control in Takaful training course develops the knowledge and practical skills needed to establish, assess and strengthen effective compliance and control frameworks. This five-day course examines Shariah governance, compliance monitoring, risk management, Shariah audit, operational controls, regulatory expectations and international best practices. Shariah compliance underpins the Takaful industry by ensuring that business activities, products, investments and operational processes conform to Islamic law.

It also supports compliance with relevant regulatory requirements and Shariah standards while protecting participants’ interests and increasing transparency. Integrating Shariah compliance into enterprise-wide control systems promotes greater accountability and sound corporate governance. These measures help sustain stakeholder confidence, manage operational risks and support the long-term sustainability of Takaful institutions.

Strengthening Compliance and Control Excellence

The Shariah Compliance & Internal Control in Takaful training course begins with the foundations of Takaful, its underlying Shariah principles and the distinctions between cooperative protection and conventional insurance. The agenda then considers the principal Takaful structures and contractual relationships, including the respective responsibilities of participants and operators. This foundation leads into Shariah governance, covering the roles of governing bodies, Shariah supervision and management in establishing policies, maintaining oversight and addressing potential areas of non-compliance.

The course progresses to internal control arrangements within Takaful operations, linking risk identification and control responsibilities with key financial and operational processes. It examines controls over contributions, underwriting, claims, investments and the separation of relevant funds, together with appropriate documentation and reporting. The later agenda addresses Shariah review, compliance monitoring and internal audit, including the planning and conduct of reviews, communication of findings, treatment of identified breaches and follow-up of corrective measures within the wider governance and control framework.
