Takaful Malaysia, the pioneer and leading takaful provider in Malaysia, has announced that the Group’s profit before zakat and tax recorded an all-time high of MYR616m ($157m) in the financial year ended 31 December 2025, 7.1% higher than MYR574.9m in 2024.
Takaful contributions rose to MYR3.78bn ($962m), an increase of MYR201.7m or 5.7% from MYR3.57bn in 2024.
The 2025 financial performance was primarily driven by a higher release of the contractual service margin and increased net investment income.
Group CEO of Takaful Malaysia, Nor Azman Zainal, said, “Our 2025 results are a clear reflection of our strategic agility and market dominance. Despite a volatile economic landscape, we have consistently outpaced industry benchmarks through disciplined execution and a balanced portfolio.”
Takaful Malaysia’s key performance drivers in 2025 included:
- Diversified success: Robust contributions from bancatakaful, treasury, employee benefits, and general takaful business lines.
- Market demand: A heightened public awareness of financial protection and a surge in demand for Shariah-compliant solutions.
- Digital adoption: The Group’s proactive digital-first approach has streamlined operations and enhanced customer accessibility.

Mr Nor Azman said, “Our focus for 2026 is clear: agility and strategic market expansion beyond bancatakaful.
“We are accelerating efforts to diversify our distribution footprint and drive business growth across multiple touchpoints. By leveraging our core strengths and the momentum of our digital platforms and market expansion strategy, we are well-positioned to navigate future headwinds and continue generating long-term, sustainable value for our customers, partners, and shareholders.” M
