‘Mercantile Bank Islamic Banking offers different attractive deposit schemes under Mudaraba Principles of Islamic Shariah. ‘Mudaraba Masik Munafa Amanat Prokolpo’ (MMMAP) is a time specified deposit scheme for customers where a fixed amount of money deposited for a tenure of 3 or 5 years and the depositor will get a certain sum of money (provisional) in each month proportion to his/her deposited amount during the entire tenure.
