Islamic Capital Market-Sukuk-Sukuk Musharakah
Key Differences from Sukuk Mudarabah:
  • Capital Contribution: Both parties (investors and the company) must contribute capital to the business venture.
  • Loss Sharing: Loss sharing must be proportionate to capital contribution. Profit Sharing Ratio (PSR) is negotiable.
  • Management Participation: Both parties have the right to participate in the management of the business venture.
Typical Sukuk Musharakah Structure:
  1. Sukuk Issuance: SPV/Issuer issues Sukuk (e.g., $100 million).
  2. Subscription Payment: Investors pay Sukuk subscription to SPV/Issuer (e.g., $100 million).
  3. Company Contribution: Company contributes capital to the Musharakah venture (cash or in-kind, e.g., $10 million).
  4. Capital Transfer: SPV/Issuer transfers investor capital and company contribution to the Musharakah venture (e.g., $100 million + $10 million).
  5. Profit Sharing: Profits from the Musharakah venture are shared between investors and the company according to an agreed PSR (e.g. 'y'% for each).
Important Considerations:
  • Business Venture: The capital is invested in a specific, identified business venture (e.g., upgrading airport facilities).
  • Capital Form: Capital contributions can be in cash or in-kind (e.g., equipment).
  • Profit Distribution:
    • Profit is distributed according to an agreed PSR.
    • Tanazul (Waiver): Investors can waive some profit in favour of the company.
    • Investors expect periodic profit distribution, making Sukuk behave like fixed-income instruments.
  • Non-Debt Based: Neither Mudarabah nor Musharakah is a debt-based contract.
  • No Guarantee: There is no obligation to pay a fixed income or profit, and there is no guarantee on the capital invested.
