Frequently Asked Questions

Is Air Lease Corporation (AL) halal to invest in?
Air Lease Corporation (AL) is rated Not Halal under AAOIFI Standard 21 screening. It fails either the business activity screen (primary involvement in prohibited sectors such as conventional banking, alcohol, or gambling) or one of the quantitative financial ratio thresholds. Muslim investors should avoid or exit this position.
Why did Air Lease Corporation get a F compliance rating?
Air Lease Corporation (AL) received a grade of F (Non-Compliant) based on three AAOIFI Standard 21 financial ratios: debt-to-market-cap of 270.9% (limit 30%); interest-bearing deposits of 6.4% (limit 30%); prohibited income of 0.00% (limit 5%). The grade reflects the margin of safety across all three ratios relative to their thresholds.
What could change Air Lease Corporation's Shariah verdict?
