Takaful associations in Malaysia and Indonesia are collaborating to share knowledge, conduct joint training programmes, exchange data intelligence and provide consultations on matters related to Islamic finance and takaful. An agreement was inked by the Malaysian Takaful Association (MTA) and Secretariat of Asosiasi Asuransi Syariah Indonesia (AASI) on 27 September to begin these initiatives. The event was held during the Takaful Rendezvous in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
