The Chief Guest of the Ceremony, Mr. Paul J. Ngwembe, Director Legal Enforcement of Tanzania Insurance Regulatory Authority (TIRA) welcomed AlHuda Center of Islamic Banking and Economic with this noble cause to promote Islamic insurance (Takfaful) in East Africa and appreciated their efforts to promote it. He said that Takaful in all standards is a system not just a product like any other insurance products; it is a system whereby insurance professionals need to learn, internalize and become professionals of Islamic Finance. One of the major components of Islamic Finance is Takaful or Islamic Insurance. At the end of his speech at this juncture, He requested AlHuda to introduce certificate and diploma courses either by joint venture with the existing colleges and Universities here in Tanzania or establish one with a view of training experts who will become potential Takaful Operators, Takaful Brokers and Takaful Agents.

The Guest of Honor of the Ceremony, Mr. Samuel E.M Mchopa, Chief Executive Officer of Association of Tanzania Insurance said that the little I have heard about Takaful is that “It is a form of insurance that is compatible with the principle of Shariah whereby a group of persons agree to support one another jointly against a specified loss. He further added that AlHuda CIBE’s facilitators have gone beyond that Narrow understanding which I have and now the challenge lies on to yourselves on how that knowledge which you have acquired will be reflected into your companies’ books and the economy at large.
