Personal Financing-i

HSBC Amanah Personal Financing-i is a term financing facility with fixed monthly instalments. It is based on the concept of Commodity Murabahah which refers to an arrangement to purchase and sell Shariah compliant commodities whereby the cost and profit margin (mark-up) are made known and agreed by all parties involved.

• An Islamic bank personal financing is one that follows the Islamic banking principles. A personal loan offered by an Islamic bank, also known as an Islamic personal financing, is issued by Islamic banks in Malaysia. The financing tool uses the concept of Commodity Murabaha (cost plus profit), making it Shariah compliant. 
• Being Shariah compliant means the loan does not have fixed or floating interest rates or fees (also known as riba, or usury) for the loan of money. This is prohibited according to the Islamic banking principles. 
• Late settlement of Islamic Personal Financing can incur lower charges than Conventional personal loans because  there is no concept of compounding interest calculation.
