Restricted Investment Account (‘RA’) refers to a type of Investment Account (‘IA’) where the Investment Account Holder (‘IAH’) provides a specific investment mandate to the Islamic Financial Institution (‘IFI’) such as purpose, asset class, economic sector and period for investment. RA is clearly distinct from Unrestricted Investment Account (‘UA’); as the asset creation is dependent on the placement of RA fund.
Musyarakah refers to a partnership between two or more parties, whereby all parties will share the profit and bear the loss from partnership.
Restricted Investment Account on Musyarakah Venture (‘RAM’) would allow AmBank Islamic (‘AmBI’) to take placement of fund under Restricted Investment Account (‘RA’) via Mudarabah contract (RAM-Liability) from an Investment Account Holder (‘IAH’) and disburse it as capital to a Venture via Musyarakah contract (RAM-Asset).
According to Musyarakah contract, the Entrepreneur would also contribute an amount to form the total capital for the Venture. The Musyarakah Venture would allow AmBI to manage the returns from the RA fund being used by the Entrepreneur and subsequently distribute the profit/ loss accordingly back to the IAH.
