The planned overhaul to sukuk Standard 62 has been put on ice <\/strong>after investors warned the move could disrupt a USD 1 tn market, Bloomberg<\/a> reports, citing Accounting and Auditing Organization for Islamic Financial Institutions (AAOIFI) Secretary General Omar Mustafa Ansari. \u201cA strict implementation would materially change the nature of sukuk from being bond-like to becoming more akin to asset-backed securities,\u201d Amol Shitole, head of fixed income at Mashreq Capital, told Bloomberg. <\/p>\n

(Tap or click the headline above to read this story with all of the links <\/strong>to our background as well as external sources.)<\/p>\n

Back to the drawing board: <\/strong>\u201cWe have put it on hold,\u201d Ansari said, adding that at least one more consultation round with central banks, major issuers, rating firms, and lawyers will take place before a final decision on Standard 62 is made. <\/p>\n

SOUND SMART-<\/strong> Standard 62 would require sukuk issuers to formally transfer ownership of underlying assets to investors \u2014 a shift AAOIFI scholars say is needed to ensure structures reflect true Shariah-compliant asset ownership, rather than the bond-like cash flows common in today\u2019s market. \u201cSukuk can never be a conventional bond,\u201d Ansari said, adding that \u201canybody who wants a pure bond should go to the conventional market.\u201d<\/p>\n

The possible update would safeguard against default:<\/strong> AAOIFI argues that in a truly asset-backed structure, investors would be able to take over or liquidate assets more swiftly in the event of default \u2014 a central question in the ongoing debate. Discussions are now focused on structuring sukuk so that regular cashflows resemble debt-like instruments, while default situations trigger equity-like characteristics.<\/p>\n

Industry concerns remain significant.<\/strong> \u201cThis shift could have significant consequences,\u201d Shitole said, citing variable income, greater complexity, and reduced liquidity that could weigh on demand. Rating agencies and investors also warn that such a move would complicate risk assessment and could mean that sukuk may no longer qualify for fixed-income portfolios.<\/p>\n

Not likely to sit well with sovereign issuers:<\/strong> Mehdi Popotte, senior sukuk portfolio manager at Arqaam Capital, pointed to three challenges. First, that some issuers \u2014 particularly sovereigns \u2014 may be unwilling to transfer assets. Second, that investors might shift toward non-AAOIFI-compliant sukuk, creating a fragmented market. Third, that AAOIFI does not maintain official records of which sukuk meet its standards.<\/p>\n
