CA-3.10.5

A Wakalah financing can be carried out on either:

(a) A restricted basis, where the capital provider allows the Wakil to make investments subject to specified investment criteria or certain restrictions such as types of instrument, sector or country exposures etc.; or
(b) An unrestricted basis, where the capital provider allows the Wakil to invest funds freely based on the latter's skills and expertise. For interbank Wakalah, the Wakil is permitted by the Muwakkil to invest the investment amount on a discretionary basis, but only in Shari'a-compliant transactions.
