Liabilities Products – Business Account
• Conventional banks generally provide extra free services and value-
added features e.g. free pay orders, free cheque books etc. to exclusively
to their business current accounts or high net worth customers.
• Since the current account deposit product of SMBL is based on the
principle of 'Qardh', therefore, impermissible from Shariah perspective
to provide free services related to a specific balance since linking the
benefit of free services to the amount of 'Qardh‘ as Riba.
