Ar-Rahnu financing is a Shariah-compliant facility that uses gold as collateral to guarantee debt obligations. The financing period and rate are determined in advance and agreed upon by both parties (Agrobank and Customer).
Shariah Concept
- Ar-Rahnu financing adopts the concept of Tawarruq involving two (2) separate sale and purchase contracts. The first involves the sale of assets by the seller (the Bank) to the buyer (the Customer) on a deferred basis. Subsequently, the buyer of the first sale transaction will sell the same asset to the third party in cash and on the spot.
- Rahn, on the other hand, refers to a mortgage contract whereby one party as the Pawnbroker ("Rahin") makes a pledge on the asset as collateral ("Marhun") to guarantee its liability or debt obligations to the other party, the Pawnbroker ("Murtahin") in the event of a failure on the part of the Pawnbroker in fulfilling the obligation.
