Industrial Management Insurance Islamic finance has unique characteristics that give rise to a set of risk management challenges namely credit risk; liquidity risk; legal and fiduciary risk; financial supervision and transparency; and shari'ah supervision risk (Morisano, 2009).

Therefore, there is a need for a unique risk framework for Islamic institutions covering risk categorisation and documents roles, responsibilities and authorities that support the approach and processes. The structures and processes established within an Islamic Financial Institution (IFI) for monitoring and evaluating shari'ah compliance rely essentially on the arrangements internal to the firm. By being incorporated in the institutional structure, a Shari'ah Supervisory Board (SSB) has the advantage of being close to the market. Competent, independent, and empowered to approve new Shari’ah-conforming products and/or services, the SSB can enable innovation likely to emerge within the institution. Grais and Pellegrini (2006) reviewed the issues and options facing current arrangements for ensuring shari'ah compliance and suggested a framework that draws on internal and external arrangements to the firm and emphasizes market discipline.
