Faith-Aligned & Shariah Banking

Alhambra Bank & Trust Limited is one of the few CIMA-regulated Cayman Islands banks offering comprehensive Shariah-compliant banking and investment services. We serve Muslim investors and families who require banking and investment structures consistent with Islamic finance principles — including the prohibition on riba (interest) and investments in prohibited activities.

Our Approach to Islamic Finance

We structure accounts and investment portfolios to comply with the core principles of Islamic finance. Depositors participate in profit-sharing arrangements rather than conventional interest-bearing deposits. Investment portfolios exclude industries prohibited under Shariah and are structured to avoid impermissible leverage.
