In this regard, it is essential to have a comprehensive, robust and well-functioning Shariah control system to ensure that all products and services approved and provided by the IFIs are widely recognised as being Shariah compliant, not only at the point of approval or ratification, but also in terms of ongoing operations. Correspondingly, a sound Shariah audit system must be in place to forensically examine the institution’s performance on a regular basis and identify incidences of incorrect or incomplete transactional flows, with the aim of rectifying and improving performance in a continual and sustainable manner. A Quality Assurance Review (QAR) is also necessary as a strategic assessment to consider the efficiency, productivity and impact of the internal audit department of the organization. This is very much in line with the fundamental needs of a financial institution to follow necessary Shariah, governance, and ethical standards, just as it must adhere to the financial and regulatory standards of its jurisdiction. Islamic Finance Training presents a three day workshop exclusively designed to provide comprehensive and practical knowledge on Shariah compliance review, audit and governance for Islamic banking and finance. It will also highlight the relevant scope, procedures and potential issues in developing an effective Shariah audit programme. Delegates will also learn the application of the principles or QAR and the IIA standards for a Shariah audit approach.
