Sukuk is a Sharia-compliant Security (Efek) in the form of a certificate or proof of ownership of equal value that represents an undivided share (musya'/undivided share) in the underlying asset on which it is issued. It is issued in accordance with Sharia principles. This instrument offers an investment that complies with Sharia principles, providing a relatively stable rate of return (coupon), with a level of risk that is generally more measurable compared to equity instruments.
The entire structure and contract (akad) used in a Sukuk issuance is supervised by the Sharia Supervisory Board (Dewan Pengawas Syariah/DPS) and/or the Sharia Expert Team of the Issuer. Their role is to ensure that the underlying asset, the contract (akad), and all Sharia-related processes comply with Sharia principles, as set out in the fatwas issued by the National Sharia Board (Dewan Syariah Nasional/DSN) of the Indonesian Ulema Council (Majelis Ulama Indonesia/MUI).
Note:
Sukuk is a capital market product and is not a Bank product. As an investment instrument, Sukuk is not guaranteed by Maybank Indonesia with respect to its performance or the return of its investment value. Sukuk is also not covered under the deposit insurance program administered by the Indonesia Deposit Insurance Corporation (Lembaga Penjamin Simpanan/LPS). However, for Sovereign Sukuk (Sukuk Negara), the coupon payments and nominal value are guaranteed by the Government of the Republic of Indonesia, in accordance with the applicable laws and regulations.
