Bank Islam Personal Financing-i facility is an unsecured/secured term financing to meet personal financial needs which is calculated based on either a fixed rate or variable/floating rate.

2. What is the applied Shariah concept?

The Shariah concept used is Tawarruq. The illustration of the product structure is depicted below:

Roles & Responsibilities of the Contracting Parties in Tawarruq based Financing Products The customer purchases the commodity from the Bank on Murabahah (i.e a sale contract with a disclosure of the asset cost price and profit margin to the purchaser (the Customer) basis at the Bank’s Sale Price. In this arrangement, the purchase will be performed by the Bank as the Purchase Agent for the customer. As the Sale Agent for the customer, the Bank shall sell the commodity to a commodity purchaser at cost price. Proceeds from the transaction will be credited for customer’s utilization. The customer is obliged to pay the amount due from the Murabahah transaction as per the agreed terms.

Effective Profit Rate From 6.15% to 15.00% depending on the financing tenure.

4. What is the base rate (BR)?

The BR we offer on this product is made up of two parts, our benchmark cost of fund (COF) and the Statutory Reserve Requirement (SRR) cost imposed by Bank Negara Malaysia. Our benchmark COF reflects the cost of raising new funds and is based on 3-month Kuala Lumpur Interbank Offer Rate (KLIBOR) as the reference rate plus a Funding Cost Adjustment. Please refer to the Bank’s website for the latest BR. Important: Your monthly instalment and total payment will vary if the BR changes.

5. What are possible scenarios to trigger a change in the BR?

Our BR can rise or fall due to changes in the benchmark COF and changes in the SRR. Changes in the benchmark COF could occur due to changes in the Overnight Policy Rate (OPR) as decided by the Monetary Policy Committee of Bank Negara Malaysia, as well as other factors such as market funding condition due to global and domestic economic environment.
