Ejen Takafulke FAR/IFAR:Apa Yang Berubah Takaful Agentto FAR/IFAR:What Changes

Anda sudah biasa dengan kerja sebagai ejen. Sebelum bertukar dari ejen Takaful ke FAR/IFAR, fahami apa yang berubah dari sudut kelayakan, akses produk, komisyen, Buku Renewal Lama dan persistency, berdasarkan dokumen polisi Bank Negara Malaysia.

You already know the work of an agent. Before you move from Takaful agent to FAR/IFAR, understand what changes in qualifications, product access, commission, your Old Renewal Book and persistency, based on Bank Negara Malaysia policy documents.

Keputusan yang Melibatkan Kontrak, Klien dan PendapatanA Decision About Your Contract, Clients and Income

Financial Adviser's Representative (FAR) ialah wakil yang dilantik oleh firma Financial Adviser (FA) yang diluluskan Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM). Bagi produk Takaful, wakil ini dipanggil Islamic Financial Adviser's Representative (IFAR), dan dilantik oleh firma Islamic Financial Adviser (IFA).

A Financial Adviser's Representative (FAR) is a representative appointed by a Financial Adviser (FA) firm approved by Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM). For Takaful products, this representative is called an Islamic Financial Adviser's Representative (IFAR), appointed by an Islamic Financial Adviser (IFA) firm.

Bertukar daripada ejen kepada IFAR bukan sekadar tukar gelaran. Kontrak ejen anda ditamatkan, buku klien lama perlu diurus, dan cara anda dibayar serta dinilai turut berubah.

Moving from agent to IFAR is more than a change of title. Your agency contract ends, your existing client book has to be managed, and the way you are paid and assessed changes too.

Halaman ini membandingkan kedua-dua saluran satu per satu, berdasarkan dokumen polisi BNM, supaya anda nampak apa yang anda dapat dan apa yang berubah. Antara yang dibandingkan ialah akses produk, komisyen, Buku Renewal Lama dan persistency, iaitu peratus sumbangan sijil yang masih berkuat kuasa.

This page compares both channels point by point, based on BNM policy documents, so you can see what you gain and what changes. Among the comparisons are product access, commission, the Old Renewal Book and persistency, the share of certificate contributions still in force.

Beza paling besar bukan Siling Komisyen, tetapi siapa yang menerima komisyen itu dan berapa pengendali yang boleh anda bawa ke meja klien.

The biggest difference is not the Commission Ceiling, but who receives that commission and how many operators you can bring to the client's table.

04Akses ProdukProduct Access

Dari Satu Pengendali kepada Pelbagai PengendaliFrom One Operator to Many Operators

Sebagai ejen, anda hanya boleh mewakili satu pengendali Takaful Keluarga. Sebagai IFAR, firma IFA anda wajib membawa pilihan daripada sekurang-kurangnya tiga pengendali bagi setiap kelas, jadi nasihat boleh bermula dengan keperluan klien. Julat sebenar ikut panel firma, bukan semua syarikat Takaful secara automatik.

As an agent, you can only represent one Family Takaful operator. As an IFAR, your IFA firm must offer options from at least three operators for each class, so advice can start from the client's needs. The actual range follows the firm's panel, not every Takaful company automatically.

05KomisyenCommission

Komisyen: Siling Sama, Penerima BerbezaCommission: Same Ceiling, Different Recipient

Bagi Takaful Keluarga biasa dengan tempoh bayaran 20 tahun ke atas, Siling Komisyen BNM bagi kedua-dua saluran ialah 171% daripada Sumbangan Tahunan, merentasi enam tahun. Dalam agensi, 171% itu dipecahkan kepada Komisyen Asas untuk ejen dan Overriding untuk ketua agensi. Dalam saluran FA, keseluruhannya dibayar kepada firma, dan firma berkongsi dengan IFAR ikut Kadar Payout, iaitu peratus bahagian firma yang dibayar kepada IFAR.

For ordinary Family Takaful with a payment term of 20 years or more, BNM's Commission Ceiling for both channels is 171% of the Annual Contribution, spread over six years. In an agency, that 171% is split into Base Commission for the agent and Overriding for agency leaders. In the FA channel, all of it is paid to the firm, which shares it with the IFAR at its Payout Rate, the percentage of the firm's share paid to the IFAR.

06Buku Renewal LamaOld Renewal Book

Buku Renewal Lama Tidak Hangus Secara AutomatikYour Old Renewal Book Does Not Simply Vanish

Ramai ejen risau Komisyen Renewal daripada klien lama hilang sebaik sahaja bertukar. Dokumen Polisi Operating Cost Controls (Appendix I, perenggan 1.7.20) mewajibkan pengendali terus membayar Komisyen Renewal kepada bekas ejen dan bekas ketua agensi yang menjadi FAR, dengan tiga syarat.

Many agents worry that Renewal Commission from existing clients disappears the moment they switch. The Policy Document on Operating Cost Controls (Appendix I, paragraph 1.7.20) requires operators to keep paying Renewal Commission to former agents and agency leaders who become FARs, under three conditions.

5 TahunYears

Tempoh PeralihanTransition Period

Komisyen Renewal terus dibayar sepanjang tempoh peralihan lima tahun.

Renewal Commission continues to be paid throughout a five-year transition period.

85% MinimumMinimum

Persistency IndividuIndividual Persistency

Syaratnya persistency individu anda sekurang-kurangnya 85%, dikira atas sumbangan.

The condition is your individual persistency of at least 85%, measured on contributions.

AsasBase SahajaOnly

Tanpa OverridingNo Overriding

Bayaran terhad kepada Komisyen Asas. Overriding atas buku itu kekal dibayar kepada ketua agensi asal.

Payment is limited to Base Commission. Overriding on that book continues to go to the original agency leader.

Tempoh Peralihan Selepas BertukarTransition Period After the Switch

Hari dilantik sebagai FARDay appointed as FAR 1TahunYear 2TahunYear 3TahunYear 4TahunYear 5TahunYear

Komisyen Renewal atas buku lama dibayar selagi persistency individu 85% ke atasRenewal Commission on the old book is paid as long as individual persistency stays at 85% or above

Berhati-hati Memindahkan Sijil LamaBe Careful Moving Existing Certificates

Memindahkan sijil klien lama ke pengendali lain akan menjatuhkan persistency buku lama, yang menjadi syarat 85% di atas, dan boleh tertakluk peraturan penggantian sijil. Cara tempoh peralihan dilaksanakan juga boleh berbeza ikut pengendali, jadi semak dengan pengendali asal anda.

Moving existing clients' certificates to another operator will lower the persistency of your old book, which is the 85% condition above, and may fall under certificate replacement rules. How the transition period is applied can also differ by operator, so check with your original operator.

07Persistency dan BSCPersistency and BSC

Persistency dan BSC: Diukur di Kedua-dua SaluranPersistency and BSC: Measured in Both Channels

Ejen dan IFAR sama-sama dinilai melalui BSC, iaitu penilaian prestasi yang menentukan 25% komisyen. Bagi IFAR, KPI persistency ialah 90% pada tahun pertama dan 80% pada tahun kedua, dan BNM melaporkan saluran FA mencatat kadar persistency tertinggi.

Agents and IFARs are both assessed through the BSC, a performance assessment that determines 25% of commission. For IFARs, the persistency KPI is 90% in the first year and 80% in the second, and BNM reports that the FA channel records the highest persistency.

Data BNM tentang saluran FABNM data on the FA channel

Dalam ucapan di persidangan Association of Financial Advisers (AFA) pada Julai 2024, Penolong Gabenor BNM menyatakan saluran FA mencatat kadar persistency tertinggi berbanding ejen dan bancatakaful selama tiga tahun berturut-turut, bagi kesemua sepuluh tahun sijil yang diukur.

In a speech at the Association of Financial Advisers (AFA) conference in July 2024, a BNM Assistant Governor stated that the FA channel recorded the highest persistency rate compared with agents and bancatakaful for three consecutive years, across all ten certificate years measured.

Berat KPI dalam BSCKPI Weights in the BSC

Persistency membawa 55% berat bagi ejen dan 40% bagi IFARPersistency carries 55% of the weight for agents and 40% for IFARs

IFAR pula diukur atas perbandingan tiga pengendali, KPI yang tiada dalam BSC ejen.

IFARs are also measured on comparing three operators, a KPI absent from the agent's BSC.

Exposure Draft Proper Advice PracticesExposure Draft on Proper Advice PracticesDraf, belum berkuat kuasaDraft, not yet in force

Draf BNM bertarikh 30 September 2026 mencadangkan firma FA dan IFA mendedahkan senarai pengendali yang boleh diperoleh di awal CFF, bersama konflik kepentingan. Draf yang sama mencadangkan perantara tidak mengesyorkan sebarang produk jika tiada yang sesuai dengan keperluan dan kemampuan klien, dan merekod sebab, kos serta kehilangan manfaat bila mencadangkan penggantian sijil.

A BNM draft dated 30 September 2026 proposes that FA and IFA firms disclose the list of operators they can source from at the start of the CFF, together with conflicts of interest. The same draft proposes that intermediaries recommend no product if none suits the client's needs and affordability, and record the reasons, costs and loss of benefits when proposing a certificate replacement.

Jika dimuktamadkan, rak produk yang lebih luas menjadi kelebihan praktikal. Maklum balas dibuka sehingga 31 Januari 2027. Halaman ini akan dikemas kini bila BNM memuktamadkannya.

If finalised, a wider product shelf becomes a practical advantage. Feedback is open until 31 January 2027. This page will be updated once BNM finalises it.
