  3. WHAT IS AN INTEREST RATE SWAP • An Interest Rate Swap is an agreement to exchange interest rate cash flows, calculated on a notional principal amount, at specified intervals (payment dates) during the life of the agreement. • Each party’s payment obligation is computed using a different interest rate. In an interest rate swap, the notional principal is never exchanged. Swap typically refers to a generic interest rate swap in which one party pays a fixed rate and another pays a floating rate.

  4. ISLAMIC PROFIT RATE SWAP (IPRS) - DEFINITION • An Islamic Profit Rate Swap is an agreement to exchange profit rates between a Fixed Rate Party and a Floating Rate Party or vice versa implemented through the execution of a series of underlying contracts to trade certain assets under the Shariah principles of Bai’ and Bai’ Bithaman Ajil. • Each party’s payment obligation is computed using a different pricing formulae. In an Islamic profit rate swap, the notional principal is never exchanged as it is netted off. Swap typically refers to the difference in the price over and above the notional principal in which one party pays a fixed rate and another pays a floating rate.

  5. OBJECTIVES OF IPRS • to match funding rates with return rates (from investment); • to achieve lower cost of funding; • to restructure existing debt profile without raising new finance, or altering the structure of the balance sheet; • to manage exposure to interest rate movement as Islamic financial institutions still compete with conventional banks for market space; • to deepen Islamic Financial Market.
