10.0 SHARIAH GOVERNANCE DISCLOSURES
Overview
BMMB’s shariah governance structure is governed by BNM’s Shariah Governance Policy Document (“SGPD”), the Islamic
Financial Services Act 2013 (“IFSA”), and any related guidelines issued by the authorities, subject to variations and
amendments from time to time.
Shariah governance system as defined by the Islamic Financial Services Board’s (“IFSB”) Guiding Principles on Shariah
Governance System on Institutions Offering Islamic Financial Services (“IFSB-10”) refers to a set of institutional and
organizational arrangements to oversee Shariah compliance aspects in Islamic financial institutions (“IFI”).
The SGPD defines “Shariah non-compliance risk” as the risk of legal or regulatory sanctions, financial loss or non-financial
implications including reputational damage, which an IFI may suffer arising from failure to comply with the rulings of
the Shariah Advisory Council (“”SAC””) of BNM, standards on Shariah matters issued by BNM pursuant to section 29(1) of
the IFSA, or decisions or advice of the Bank’s Shariah Committee (“”SC””).
Shariah risk management and governance in BMMB are in accordance with the Shariah Governance Policy (“Policy”),
which was endorsed by the Shariah Committee and approved by the Board. The policy is drawn up in accordance to the
SGPD issued by BNM on 20 September 2019.
In ensuring the operations and business activities of the Bank remain consistent with Shariah principles and regulatory
requirements, the Bank has established its own internal Shariah Committee and internal Shariah Organs, which consist of
Shariah Department, Shariah Audit, Shariah Review and Shariah Risk Management.
