CIR 13.5.5 |
A Fund Manager of a REIT may (in respect of the Fund) borrow either directly or through its Special Purpose Vehicle up to 50 |
|
IFR 6.11.5 |
A Fund Manager of an Islamic REIT may (in respect of the Fund) borrow either directly or through its Special Purpose Vehicle up to 50 Guidance As there are no specific risks that arise by virtue of a Fund being an Islamic Fund, the prudential requirements that apply to a Category 3 firm as set out in the PIB module apply to such Fund Managers. However, if the underlying assets of the Fund are invested in financial products or instruments that are Islamic and have certain features which would raise any prudential risks, it is the responsibility of the Fund Manager to address such risks. The DFSA would provide any additional clarifications regarding such matters upon request. |
CONDITIONS
None.
