Book Synopsis Conceptual Differentiation Between Takaful and Conventional Insurers by : Melbourne Fonseca
Download or read book Conceptual Differentiation Between Takaful and Conventional Insurers written by Melbourne Fonseca and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2011-07 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The insurance industry has seen a recent growth in a market segment which prefers products and services that relate to the Islamic Society and the concept of mutual cooperation in abidance with the Islamic Laws. The reason for this growth is the existence of an alternative called as Islamic' insurance products provided by the Takaful insurance companies. Ever since the establishment of the concept of Takaful, the Takaful providers have been capturing the market in the Islamic community with this core competency feature in their products. There has been very little academic literature that compares the managerial and conceptual aspects of the conventional and takaful insurers. This book, therefore, compares 5 leading insurance/re-insurance companies in The Kingdom of Bahrain of which 2 are conventional companies, 2 are takaful companies and one practising both types of insurance. The analysis should help us understand how different these companies are and should be especially useful for individuals or organisations who are left with a choice to select either of the above two insurance providers.

Book Synopsis A Comparison of Islamic Insurance (Takaful) and Conventional Insurance by : Valérie Loher
Download or read book A Comparison of Islamic Insurance (Takaful) and Conventional Insurance written by Valérie Loher and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper provides an overview of the Islamic insurance market, its principles, its business models and its current role within different countries of the GCC and South-East Asia. The focus is thereby set on the comparison of the insurance sector of selected countries to Switzerland on industry as well as on firm level. The sample includes 6 countries and 27 life and non-life Islamic insurance providers. Based on the determinants of success of an insurance company, different variables are evaluated and the companies contrasted with each other. The results of this analysis show that despite the high growth rates of Islamic insurance companies, the GCC sample countries exhibit lower cost ratios coupled with higher underwriting efficiency and overall profitability compared to Swiss insurers. The main reason for these findings on firm level is the lack of insurance awareness. This reduces the initial demand for insurance and - more importantly - the use of insurance benefits of people already insured. Due to this circumstance, insurance providers are able to settle the small pool of claims by allocating fewer resources to screening, monitoring and reviewing the insured and their claims. Moreover, it is shown that the size of investments undertaken by Malaysian companies exceeds those undertaken by companies in the Gulf region significantly. These missing investments might become noticeable and jeopardize the performance of Gulf insurance companies once the awareness elaborates.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The growth of Islamic finance today is undeniable given its services, product innovation, performance and achievements, with the Islamic insurance market being no exception; it has retained global market recognition in a parallel platform as Islamic finance moves forward. There is much written regarding the Islamic insurance system, but rarely do researchers present the various Islamic insurance products and their structures in one collective place. This book is a timely addition in meeting contemporary market demands by providing a much-needed overview of the Islamic insurance products and their Shari’ah compliant structures. This book would be of interest to academics, researchers, students and professionals who are seeking to understand the products offered.

Book Synopsis Insurable Interest and the Law by : Franziska Arnold-Dwyer
Download or read book Insurable Interest and the Law written by Franziska Arnold-Dwyer and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-04-28 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book assesses the role of the doctrine of insurable interest within modern insurance law by examining its rationales and suggesting how shortcomings could be fixed. Over the centuries, English law on insurable interest – a combination of statutes and case law – has become complex and unclear. Other jurisdictions have relaxed, or even abolished, the requirement for an insurable interest. Yet, the UK insurance industry has overwhelmingly supported the retention of the doctrine of insurable interest. This book explores whether the traditional justifications for the doctrine – the policy against wagering, the prevention of moral hazard and the doctrine’s relationship with the indemnity principle – still stand up to scrutiny and argues that, far from being obsolete, they have acquired new significance in the global financial markets and following the liberalisation of gambling. It is also argued that the doctrine of insurable interest is an integral part of a system of insurance contract law rules and market practice. Rather than rejecting the doctrine, the book recommends a recalibration of insurable interest to afford better pre-contractual transparency to a proposer as to the suitability of the policy to his or her interest in the subject-matter to be insured. Providing a powerful defence for the retention of insurable interest, this book will appeal to both academics and practitioners working in the field of insurance law.

Download or read book Concept And Application Of Shariah For The Construction Industry: Shariah Compliance In Construction Contracts, Project Finance And Risk Management written by Khairuddin Abdul Rashid and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2018-10-19 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The application of Shariah compliance in business transactions continues to increase. The Asian financial crisis of 1997, global financial crisis of 2007-2008, Enron scandal and other reported ills besieging conventional business transactions have led to advocates of Shariah-compliant business transactions promoting the latter as a credible alternative. However, unlike the banking, commerce and financial sectors, the uptake by the construction sector was sluggish due to limited understanding of Shariah among the practitioners and policymakers compounded by the lack of research and publications on its application for the construction sector.This book is intended for students, researchers, practitioners and policymakers of the construction industry as well as the related upstream and downstream activities. It offers basic theories, challenges current practices, and proposes innovative ideas on Shariah compliance and its application for the construction industry.Related Link(s)
Book Synopsis Introduction to Islamic Banking and Finance by : Brian Kettell
Download or read book Introduction to Islamic Banking and Finance written by Brian Kettell and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-10-07 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction to Islamic Banking and Finance is a succinct guide to the key characteristics of Islamic banking highlighting how these differ from conventional banking. This detailed book illustrates how Islamic banking is consistent with the Sharia'a, a key element of which is the prohibition on collecting and paying interest. This central religious precept appears to rule out most aspects of modern finance but it does allow money to be used for trading tangible assets and business, which can then generate a profit. Brian Kettell's book looks at all aspects of Islamic banking, including chapters on its creation and evolution through to detailed discussions of the issues involved in the Sharia'a contracts of Murabaha, Mudaraba, Musharaka, Ijara, Istisna'a, and Salam. Islamic insurance (Takaful) is also covered. Finally the book takes a look at Sharia'a law and Sharia'a boards, indicating the roles and responsibilities that come with membership. Islamic banks have been operating in places such as Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Malaysia and Dubai for some time. Conventional bankers have traditionally viewed the sector as a small, exotic niche but recent years have seen a dramatic surge in popularity. A number of Western investment banks have started working with Muslim clerics to create new ranges of financial products designed for devout Muslims, a large and growing market. Although estimates of the size of the Islamic finance industry vary greatly, everyone agrees that it is expanding rapidly and this is the perfect book for anyone looking to understand the industry.
