National Bank of Fujairah (NBF) today announced the completion of a Sharia-compliant bullion financing transaction with Malabar Gold.

This marks the first-ever Sharia-compliant bullion financing in accordance with the Accounting and Auditing Organisation for Islamic Financial Institutions (AAOIFI) standards in the precious metals industry in the UAE. The partnership follows the launch of the AAOIFI Sharia Standard on Gold in December 2016 in collaboration with the World Gold Council.

The gold standard sets out the Sharia rules for trading and transacting in the metal whereby the latter joins equities, real estate, Islamic bonds (sukuk) and insurance (takaful) as vehicles approved for Islamic finance.

The standard lays out a clear guidance on the permissibility to trade in gold and makes it possible for Islamic investors to deploy to grow their wealth, diversify their portfolios, and protect them against market risks in a Sharia-compliant manner.
