The Bursa Malaysia Islamic Íø±¬³Ô¹Ï Selling and Buying — Negotiated Transaction (ISSBNT) model has been endorsed as a vital addition to the regional securities financing toolkit for Shariah-compliant products.

The endorsement comes following a review by the Pan Asia Íø±¬³Ô¹Ï Lending Association’s (PASLA) Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and legal working groups and executive team.

The ISSBNT model is a Shariah-compliant alternative to the conventional Íø±¬³Ô¹Ï Borrowing and Lending - Negotiated Transaction (SBLNT) Model

The model is structured based on two outright bai` (sale) transactions that includes the feature of wa`dan (two unilateral promises/undertakings), khiyar al-shart (conditional option) and the provision of collateral as security for the indebtedness.

In an online statement, PASLA states: “We commend Bursa Malaysia, a valued PASLA member firm, for their innovative efforts in developing a transaction framework that achieves results equivalent to conventional securities borrowing and lending transaction, while strictly adhering to Shariah principles.â€

PASLA says they recognise the importance of advancing Shariah-compliant products within the Malaysian capital markets, in line with similar initiatives across other regions.
