Malaysia is a global Islamic finance leader. Thus, in Malaysia, takaful operators, which provide insurance contracts modified to be compliant with Shariah principles, compete directly with conventional insurers. The first modern insurance company was established in Malaysia in the early 20th century. However, insurance penetration in the country is significantly lower than the global average; for instance, in 2018, general insurance penetration was only 1.2% of GDP compared with a global average of 3.0%, and only approximately 54% of Malaysians were life insurance policyholders. The Malaysian government has therefore endeavoured to create an environment conducive to increasing insurance penetration.
