CA-3.4.9
This section makes distinctions between the two main categories of Istisna'a:
(a) Full Recourse Istisna'a
The receipt of the selling price by the bank is dependent on the financial strength or payment capability of the customer for the subject matter of Istisna'a, where the source of payment is derived from the various other commercial activities of the customer and is not solely dependent on the cash flows from the underlying asset/project; and

(b) Limited and Non-recourse Istisna'a

This form of Istisna'a faces "revenue risk" arising from the asset's ability to generate cash flows, instead of the creditworthiness of the customer or project sponsor.
