With $100B+ in Islamic finance assets, five dedicated Islamic banks including Al Rayan Bank, and an FCA regulatory framework that demands documented Shariah governance, the UK compliance workload requires structured tooling. ZeroH maps FCA, PRA, and AAOIFI obligations in a single platform — with blockchain-verified audit trails built for UK regulatory submissions.
The FCA and PRA regulate Islamic finance under the same prudential framework as conventional banking, requiring institutions to document Shariah compliance in terms a Western regulator can examine. ZeroH structures that documentation.
The Financial Conduct Authority and Prudential Regulation Authority regulate UK Islamic banks under the same authorisation and prudential regime as conventional banks. Shariah compliance documentation must satisfy both internal SSB requirements and FCA/PRA examination standards.
Al Rayan Bank UK is a live ZeroH deployment. The UK platform was the first market where ZeroH structured Shariah compliance evidence trails for a fully authorised FCA-regulated Islamic bank.
The Islamic Finance Council UK advocates for the sector and provides guidance on AAOIFI standard adoption in a UK context. ZeroH covers AAOIFI standards with clause-level mapping applicable to UK institutional requirements.
London hosts the UK Islamic Finance Secretariat, UKIFC, and the European presence of major Islamic banks. As a global hub, UK institutions often need compliance frameworks that bridge UK FCA requirements with GCC and international standards simultaneously.
