| Shrnutí: | Consumer protection and financial literacy are essential pillars of a well functioning and stable financial system.

To safeguard the stability of the Islamic finance industry, consumer protection frameworks that cater to the specifics of Islamic financial products should be an integral part of regulatory frameworks. |
