Risk Management

Risk management is the identification, assessment, and prioritization of risks followed by coordinated and economical application of resources to minimize, monitor, and control the probability and/or impact of unfortunate events or to maximize the realization of opportunities.

As with any conventional financial institutions, Islamic banks and Takaful companies (insurance companies) have to address risk management issues such as concentration risk and liquidity risk. In addition, as Islamic finance is asset-based, investing in real estate assets appears logical but also presents a risk.
