ABOUT MTA

MALAYSIAN TAKAFUL ASSOCIATION2016 ANNUAL REPORT 4

The year 2016 was in full swing as the industry worked relentlessly on the LIFE Framework and conducted several mock run of the Balanced Scorecard for agents and bancatakaful. With the impending dateline drawing closer, the industry is also gearing itself up towards splitting of licenses between family and general Takaful.

Continuing another year of raising Takaful awareness, the industry has continued to work with several strategic partners and this ongoing effort will continue to be part and parcel of the Takaful industry as it increases its penetration rate in the years to come.

In this regard, the Association will continue to play central role as the industry’s representative body and is committed and focused in its efforts to foster the industry’s growth into 2020 and beyond.

On behalf of the Management Committee, I would like to express my sincere appreciation to Encik Ahmad Rizlan Azman for his service, dedication and commitment in leading MTA during his tenure as the Chairman from January 2015 to November 2016. It is an honour for me to take on the role and in continuing his efforts and I would like to thank the Members of the Management Committee for the support and trust to lead MTA.

I wish to also to record my sincere appreciation to all member companies and their representatives for their service, commitment and dedication for their support to MTA’s initiatives and activities. Their continued commitment and determination has become the catalyst for the Association to move forward.

While ensuring the Takaful industry grows in manifold, it is pertinent that the industry stay true to its concept of helping one another “Taawun”, which is one of the fundamental pillars of Takaful. I strongly believe that through the spirit of mutuality and togetherness between Member Companies, MTA would be able to contribute significantly in achieving higher penetration rate and ensuring the Takaful industry grows from strength to strength.

Lastly, I wish to express my appreciation to the Secretariat team for their hard work and dedication while carrying out their duties in ensuring smooth operations and activities of the Association.

On behalf of the Management Committee, I am pleased to present the Annual Report of the Association for year ended 31 December 2016.

KEY INDUSTRY DEADLINES


Life Insurance and Family Takaful (LIFE) FrameworkIn November 2015, Bank Negara Malaysia has issued the Life Insurance and Family Takaful (LIFE) Framework to both Takaful and insurance industries. The Framework aims to promote innovation and a more competitive market supported by higher levels of professionalism and transparency in the provision of insurance and Takaful products and services. This will be achieved through specific initiatives introduced under the Framework, which can be broadly summarised under three main pillars as follows:

a) Gradual removal of limits on operational costs to promote product innovation while preserving policy/certificate value Life insurers/family Takaful operators will be given greater flexibility to manage their operating expenses, commensurate with their business strategy. however, consumers’ interests will remain protected through appropriate safeguards that will preserve their policy/certificate value;

b) Diversified distribution channels to widen outreach Life insurance/family Takaful products will be accessible to consumers through a wider range of delivery channels that are most convenient and appropriate. Diversified distribution channels can also contribute towards lowering the cost of life insurance/family Takaful products by promoting consumer choice and competition in the market; and

c) Strengthened market conduct to enhance consumer protection The level of professionalism of intermediaries will be enhanced to ensure consumers are given proper advice. At the same time, initiatives to facilitate informed decision making by consumers will be further pursued by strengthening product disclosure standards with greater transparency and clarity in order for consumers to better understand product features. This will be complemented by mechanisms introduced to facilitate meaningful and effective product comparisons.

To support and facilitate a smooth implementation of LIFE Framework to all industry players, MTA and LIAM have formed a joint working committee to look into and manage the technical details of the framework. There are currently 3 MTA-LIAM joint working committee, 1 MTA Special Task Force and 3 MTA working committee.

The following initiatives have taken place in view of the implementation of LIFE Framework:

i. Mock run of Balanced Score Card for Agents

ii. Mock run of Balanced Score Card for Bancatakaful

iii. Development of Service Guide for Consumers

iv. Availability of Online Account Facilities

v. Building Presence of Direct Channels

vi. Enhancement of Product Disclosure in Marketing Illustrations

Phased Liberalisation of Motor and Fire TariffsOn 30 June 2016, Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) has released its Policy Document of Phased Liberalisation of Motor and Fire Tariffs. The Policy Document imposes requirements that are intended to ensure:

i. the transition to market-based pricing is gradual, and is supported by prudent risk management and practices;

ii. access to basic protection or compulsory lines remain affordable, and any adjustment to the prices of such products, is implemented gradually;

iii. consumers‟ interests remain protected through enhanced transparency and improved sales and marketing practices; and

iv. overall stability in the general insurance and Takaful market is preserved.

One of the major impacts of the Phased Liberalisation of Motor and Fire Tariff is the liberalisation of the Motor and Fire Tariffs which is hoped to give greater choice to consumers especially.

Independent Review Committee (IRC)

In compliance with Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) Policy Document of Phased Liberalisation of Motor and Fire Tariff, the Association has established an Independent Review Committee (IRC) to review the existing and new products submission by Takaful operators.

The IRC’s function is to ensure that definition of common terms in the certificates are appropriate, consistent and will not lead to ambiguity or confusion to certificate owners.

Joint Task Force (JTF) on Communications for National Consumer Education Campaign (NCEC) on Phased Liberalisation

The Association is part of the Task Force on Communications for National Consumer Education Campaign (NCEC) that comprises of Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) and Persatuan Insurans Am Malaysia (PIAM) which was set up to educate consumers with regards to options that are available to them when choosing the right type of motor and fire insurance/Takaful products in the light of the liberalization of fire and motor


insurance/Takaful practices. It will also focus on creating awareness amongst the public on the price changes of motor Takaful which is scheduled to take place in July 2017.

The Task Force will also be responsible to oversee a nationwide campaign with the involvement of Association members.

E-Payment Implementation and Awareness PlanThe insurance and Takaful industry have been promoting and encouraging the usage of e-payments in the industry and reduce cheque issuance. MTA-LIAM-PIAM through a joint working committee are working on a communication plan to promote e-payment awareness and to fully migrate to e-payment in the insurance and Takaful industry.

Adequacy of Sum Covered for Fire and Houseowner Takaful CertificatesThe Association is working hand in hand with Persatuan Insurans Am Malaysia (PIAM) in developing a Building Cost Calculator (BCC) for the industry. The BCC Working Committee has appointed Jurukur Bahan Pendita Sdn Bhd to develop the system and it is currently being tested under the User Acceptance Testing (UAT) stage. The system that is being developed will greatly assist the industry to guide the consumers in determining the adequacy of sum covered for their property.

Fraud Intelligence System (FIS)In order to address the issue of fraud faced by the insurance and Takaful industry, Insurance Services Malaysia (ISM) has proposed a Fraud Intelligence System (FIS) to the Associations of MTA and PIAM. The system will identify potential fraudulent claims by using cutting edge analytical techniques such as Predictive Analysis, Social Network Analysis and Data Integration. The system will focus on Motor insurance and Takaful before expanding to other lines of business.

An industry briefing on the proposed project was held on 22 February 2016 covering scope, benefits, implementation strategy and financing aspect of the project. It was followed by a second industry briefing of Product Demonstration on 2 June 2016.

MTA and PIAM have accepted the proposal and are actively collaborating with ISM to establish the structure of the system.
