RM-2.2.31

Islamic bank licensees must implement a system to ascertain and fulfil their obligations in respect of leased assets, which are permanently impaired through no default of the lessee. In case of such impairment, Islamic bank licensees must provide the lessee with a replacement asset with similar specifications, if such specifications were agreed upon, or if the contract was renewed, or to refund the additional amounts (capital payments) included in the Ijarah Muntahia Bittamleek (IMB) lease rentals as compared with those in an operating Ijarah. Islamic bank licensees must establish appropriate risk management policies to mitigate losses arising from such damage during the term of the lease.
