When it comes to ensuring that your
liquid assets are invested in an ethical and interest free manner we're the
experts. If you're looking for a higher profit rate and more flexibility apply
for our Wakala Treasury Deposit account.
To open a Wakala Treasury Deposit account you will need to have opened a
Current Account with us
How the Wakala Treasury Deposit Account Works
The account is operated under the Islamic Finance principle of Wakala which
is an “agency agreement” where we would act as the agent to achieve an agreed
expected rate of profit for an agreed number of days. As an agent we will
monitor the investment very closely on a daily basis to make sure that we
achieve the expected profit rate agreed with the client. If at any point (for
any reason), we are not able to achieve the expected profit rate, we will
terminate the agreement and will return the deposit plus the profit accrued on
the deposit up until the date of termination. This process minimises the risk to
your investment, as a reduction in returns below the agreed profit rate will
result in termination of the agreement. However, you will still benefit from the
profit accrued up until that point.
