TS-BGS-05 Trust & Stewardship Board Governance & Strategy CORE Compliance v2.9.7

Annual board and executive skills-gap analysis conducted and actioned

Evaluating whether the organization regularly assesses the skills of its board and executive team using a structured, evidence-based approach ensures leadership possesses the necessary capabilities—including safeguarding, finance, and risk management—to govern effectively. This protects the public interest (maṣlaḥah) and fulfills the trust (Amānah) inherent in their roles. In Islamic governance, prioritizing Kafā'ah (competence) alongside moral integrity is a fundamental obligation. Continuously addressing skill gaps upholds the Maqāṣid al-Sharīʿah (objectives of Islamic law) by ensuring qualified stewardship.
