Mudaraba Financial Company got its name after an Islamic finance technique (mudarabah) in which an investor (rab al maal) and a borrower (mudareb) establish a profit-sharing partnership to undertake an investment activity. Under this structure, the rab al maal provides the funds and the mudareb the managerial know-how to manage the investment. The mudareb invests the funds on a Sharia compliant basis (according to which it is prohibited the use of interest rates), he or she earns a fee that is deducted from any profits for managing the funds or business and the parties share the profits according to a pre-agreed ratio.
