TRR: Takaful Fund ring-fence exceptions refer to a non-existent "Rule 2.1.2 (1)", 2.2.3 to "rule 2.1.1", and 1.1.3(2) to 1.1.6(1) for the definition of Takaful Business

The prohibition on using Takaful Fund assets for other purposes is TRR 2.2.2(1), which itself announces "the exceptions provided for in the rest of this rule below"; the funds are established under 2.2.1. Yet 2.2.2(2), (3) and (4) say "Rule 2.1.2 (1) above does not ...", and 2.2.3 speaks of a Takaful Fund "established and maintained under rule 2.1.1". TRR 2.1 ("Overall Governance") has no numbered sub-rules. Separately, 1.1.3(2) refers to Takaful Business "as defined in Rules 1.1.6 (1)", but 1.1.6 lists principles and 1.1.5(1) defines a Takaful Operator; the activity of Takaful Business is defined in GEN Schedule 1, paragraph 25. The meaning survives in each case.

Proposed correction

Please read "Rule 2.2.2(1)" in 2.2.2(2)-(4) and "rule 2.2.1" in 2.2.3 (an editorial correction under section 19(3)(a) of the AIFC Regulations on AIFC Acts), and in 1.1.3(2) refer to paragraph 25 of GEN Schedule 1 for Takaful Business (or delete the words "as defined in Rules 1.1.6 (1)").
