The Islamic Finance for Board Programme is one of the initiatives of Bank Negara Malaysia in support of the developments that have shaped the Malaysian Islamic banking landscape over the past three decades. The programme aims to activate Islamic banking innovations as a board room priority of financial institutions emphasising on a clear understanding of differences in the value orientation and operationalisation of Islamic banking business vis-à-vis conventional banking. The programme is mandatory for directors of Islamic banking institutions and their respective conventional counterparts within the same banking group.
