Board self-assessment published

Evaluating board governance, this metric assesses whether the board conducts an annual effectiveness self-assessment and transparently publishes a summary of the methodology, participation, key findings, and agreed improvement actions. It emphasises muḥāsabah (self-accountability), shūrā (consultative governance), and itqān (continuous improvement/proficiency), demonstrating stewardship (amānah) through learning, transparency, and fairness. By institutionalising these practices, the board upholds the Maqāṣid al-Sharīʿah (objectives of Islamic law), specifically ensuring ḥifẓ al-māl (preservation of wealth) and reinforcing stakeholder trust through rigorous, ethical self-evaluation.
