INVESTMENT
Investment portfolios based completely on Syariah-compliant and preferred products.
At Financial Alliance, we cater to your investment objectives – be it to provide a good education for your child, to ensure a comfortable retirement or to go for the hajj – with investment portfolios based completely on Syariah-compliant and preferred products, thus giving you a peace of mind. To date, we have created five portfolios based on our Muslim clients’ risk profiles: conservative, moderately conservative, moderate, moderately aggressive and aggressive, thus allowing for better risk management. In addition, we hold exclusive rights to some Syariah products, including those only available for accredited investors.
PROTECTION
Personal or family protection needs that are acceptable or as close to syariah as possible.
At Financial Alliance, we seek to provide you with solutions for you and your family’s protection needs. Our aim is to provide solutions which are acceptable or as close to syariah as possible. Given the absence of family takaful products in Singapore, we will guide you on how to obtain the next best alternative.
ESTATE PLANNING
Customised solutions with respect to Islamic Estate Planning.
The distribution of Muslim estates are governed by Faraid, a system or method of distribution of one’s assets after death in accordance with Islamic principles. However, one’s assets are not restricted to distribution purely under Faraid as there are other means of planning a Muslim’s estate, such as the use of wasiyyah, hibah ruqba and nuzriah. We understand your needs and provide you with customised solutions with respect to Islamic Estate Planning.
ZAKAT PLANNING
Zakat calculation services for both individuals and businesses.
Zakat, being the 3rd pillar of Islam, is an important aspect of every Muslim’s financial planning. We offer Muslim clients zakat calculation services for both individuals and businesses by working together with Majlis Ugama Islam Singapura (MUIS). Muslim clients who opt for this scheme will be sent a letter by a MUIS-appointed Amil to notify them of the amount of zakat payable once the necessary conditions (haul and nisab) are met. In 2012, we looked to introduce the concept of wakaf planning as part of our Islamic financial planning process.
SME & INSTITUTIONS
Solutions for SMEs and institutions that are in-line or closest to that of Syariah.
We provide SMEs and institutions with solutions that are in-line or closest to Syariah. We also provide Singapore’s only Syariah-compliant commercial financing, consultation on Syariah standards and zakat calculations for businesses. We have provided Muslim SMEs and Islamic organizations, such as mosques, voluntary organizations and many others, with solutions tailored to their specific needs, including structuring staff benefits, investing excess liquidity and others.
