This loan is mortgage-free and it will help people to buy the necessary household items and furniture without any worry to make their apartments a home. Additionally, people who have received housing under the social housing project from any atoll and island can apply for the Islamic Home Improvement Financing.
According to the Interim in charge of the BML’s Islamic Banking Division, the opportunity to include an additional person along with the owner of the apartment in the financing process will be given the opportunity upon request. Clients will also be able to acquire goods and withdraw cash without having to spend any money out-of-pocket.
Under the BML Islamic Home Improvement Financing, a maximum amount of MVR 150,000 will be issued to the applicants and a period of 5 years will be given to repay the loan. In addition to this, customers who want to repay the loan in less than 5 years will be given the opportunity upon request and receive a discount according to BML policy.
