Under Shari'a Law, managing finance and assets requires avoiding credit or debt processes. Businesses need a well-defined treasury setup and project plan with risk prevention measures. In an Islamic Financial Institution (IFI), staying updated on terminology, trading implications, and Sukuk-influenced treasury procedures is crucial. Reviewing the money market, liquidity management, long-term funding, and capital adequacy is essential to mitigate financial risks. Understanding Islamic financial tools for forex and rate risks helps secure funding and create low-risk, long-term investment opportunities.
