islamic-finance

Operators must submit regulatory returns (Forms GCT, GDT, GET, GFT, GGT, GHT, GIT) and published financial statements by January 1. Window Takaful insurers file separate returns and statements, disclosing assets and liabilities as single line items. Operators recognize contributions evenly or by risk pattern, defer wakala fees, and test Qard-e-Hasna recoverability via three-to-five-year projections. They must record outstanding benefit liabilities at undiscounted values, including IBNR, and recognize re-Takaful contributions as liabilities upon risk attachment or inception.
