Sharia compliance
This page details our process for carefully investing your superannuation in an ethical manner.
Built by experts,
At Hejaz Financial Services, we employ a 3-tier Sharia governance process to ensure the Sharia compliance of our services. We begin by subscribing to the leading Sharia Standards stipulated by AAOIFI. Thereafter, we engage the services of IdealRatings to filter the investment universe so that we are left with only Sharia Compliant investments to populate our clients’ portfolios. Lastly, we have appointed a renowned global Sharia Board, GIFS, to oversee our Sharia governance process and to Audit us periodically to ensure that the highest standards of Sharia compliance are upheld.
