Home Finance

The monthly rental amount has two elements, fixed & variable. While the fixed portion is not subject to change, the variable portion of the EMI is subject to EIBOR movement (upward or downward) as per frequency of review agreed under the Ijarah contract.

The Emirates Interbank Offered Rate (EIBOR), also abbreviated as EBOR, is a daily reference rate, published by the UAE Central Bank, based on the averaged profit rates at which UAE banks offer funds to other banks in the United Arab Emirates dirham wholesale money market (or interbank market). For more details, please visit the Central Bank of UAE website - https://www.centralbank.ae

Each month, a part of the contractual payment you make will go towards paying off the principal and the other part will go towards the profit. To further reduce the principal outstanding, you can make a lump sum payment and partially settle your finance (at a nominal fee as per the schedule of charges).

Monthly instalment comprises of:

• Fixed Rental Payment: Principal Portion of EMI
• Variable Rental Payment: Profit Portion of EMI
• Supplementary Rental Payment: Takaful Premium for Life & Property

You can check the outstanding balance of your home finance by logging on to online banking or you can call us at 600 599 995. Priority Banking customers can contact us at 800 111 22.

As per the contractual agreement signed with the Bank for construction of your house, the Bank collects rentals in advance (under account) during the period of construction from the customer & the same is realized with the first Ijarah period rental post completion after handing over of the house to the customer.

Life Takaful & Property Takaful contribution (also called as Supplementary Rental) is charged & collected along with your Home Finance instalment.

In case your instalment is not received in full or is received later than the due date, you will be charged a late payment fee (obligated amount to charity) (as per our schedule of charges). Please ensure to have sufficient funds in your account to avoid this fee.
