What are the risks associated with investing in the Sukuk?

A: The risks include:

Perpetual Sukuk: Sukuk perpetuals have no fixed maturity date. The investment amount might never be returned by the issuer unless the issuer exercises the right to call (if any) or to redeem it. Perpetual Sukuk with expected profits for life are more volatile to market rate changes compared to Sukuk with fixed maturity dates

Callable Features: The terms and conditions of these Sukuk securities allow the issuer to terminate or redeem the Sukuk prior to its stated maturity date. Depending on the terms of the specific Sukuk security, early redemption may be rule-based (e.g., upon the occurrence of certain events or triggers) or at the issuer’s sole and absolute discretion.

Credit Risk: Investors assume the credit risk of the issuer, which includes a possible loss of the investment amount and or any expected returns.

Liquidity Risk: During adverse market conditions, holders of Sukuk may not be able to liquidate all or part of their investment as and when they require. In the event that the investor wishes to liquidate his investment before maturity, such early liquidation may result in a loss of investment amount and any expected profits.

Market Risk: The value of Sukuk can fluctuate due to changes in market conditions, including interest rates, economic developments, and political events. These fluctuations can affect the market price of Sukuk and the returns on investment.

Sovereign Risk: Payment of Sukuk may be affected by economic and political events. The occurrence of a sovereign risk event could result in the loss of all or a portion of the investment amount and/or any expected profits due to any political or economic circumstances.
