Malaysian Takaful Association
Malaysian Takaful Association (MTA) was established in November 2002 under the Malaysian Societies Act of 1966.
Malaysian Takaful Association (MTA) was established in November 2002 under the Malaysian Societies Act of 1966. It is a statutory association, as provided by the Takaful Act 1984, which stated that all Takaful operators in the country are required to be members of MTA before they can commence operations.
The objectives of MTA are essentially to promote the interests of its members and to supervise self-regulation within the Takaful industry. Being a trade association established on the requirement of a statutory provision, MTA works actively with other stakeholders in the industry, such as the Central Bank of Malaysia (Bank Negara Malaysia) and other related trade associations and relevant government ministries. The Association's affairs are managed by a Secretariat established to implement and oversee the execution of initiatives and directives of the management committee.
Awards/Accolades/Achievements
- MTA recently launched a fully computerised Takaful Basic Examination (TBE) System for takaful representatives nationwide with an enhanced syllabus. The new TBE and Continuing Professional Development (CPD) programmes are to ensure all takaful intermediaries in Malaysia are well-equipped and competent with necessary knowledge and information on takaful.
- The Takaful Rendezvous, previously known as the International Convention on Takaful and Re-takaful (ICTR), organizes annual gatherings for industry experts from all over the world. Through these events, MTA has initiated a platform for the takaful and re-takaful industry in Malaysia to introduce and promote Malaysian practices on takaful and re-takaful structures and principles to the international market.
