Wakalah Model
MAA Takaful Berhad operates under the principle of Wakalah, whereby the Takaful Operator acts as an agent to the Participant for managing the operations of the Takaful business. A Wakalah Fee will be charged up-front from the contributions paid. Tabarru (donation) will be deducted to the PRIA, where it will be used for mutual aid and assistance, based on the concept of Takaful. The benefits are paid from the PRIA only upon a covered loss, and not upon maturity or surrender of the certificate. Surplus Sharing (if any) at the end of each financial year will be shared between the Participant and MAA Takaful Berhad at 50:50 ratio. No surplus will be paid if the certificate is surrendered or terminated due to a claim. The investment profit earned on the Participant Investment Account (PIA) is derived from the return on underlying assets and MAA Takaful Berhad charges a Wakalah Tharawat Fee (Fund Management Fee) for managing these assets. The investment risk in PIA is fully borne by the Participant.
