How the screening works

1
Business screen
We check what the company does. No alcohol, tobacco, weapons, gambling, adult content, or conventional banking allowed.
2
Financial screen
We analyse the numbers. Interest income must be under 5% of total revenue. Impure income under 5% of total revenue.
3
Debt screen
Total debt must be under 33% of the company's market cap. Highly leveraged companies fail this check.
✦ Education

New to ethical investing?

Everything you need to know to get started.

🚫
What's not allowed
• Interest (riba) — any income from lending money
• Alcohol production or distribution
• Tobacco manufacturing
• Gambling and betting
• Weapons manufacturing
• Adult entertainment
• Conventional banking and insurance
✅
What is allowed
• Technology companies (Apple, Microsoft, NVIDIA)
• Pharmaceuticals and healthcare
• Consumer goods and retail

• Mining and materials

The key principle
Halal investing means putting your money into businesses that earn their income through permissible activities. The screening process looks at what a company does and how it makes money — not just what sector it's in.

☪️ Where to save

Halal savings accounts

Not investing yet? Islamic savings accounts let your money grow without earning interest (riba). Instead, banks share a portion of Shariah-compliant profit with you — known as an Expected Profit Rate (EPR).

🏦

🏛️
Gatehouse Bank
Best for easy access

✓ Low minimum deposit
✓ Easy access accounts
✓ Islamic Cash ISA available
✓ FSCS protected
Check current rates →
A note on "Expected Profit Rate": unlike conventional interest, this rate is not contractually guaranteed — it reflects actual profit generated from Shariah-compliant activity. In practice, UK Islamic banks have consistently paid the rates they advertise, but this is a genuine structural difference worth understanding. Rates change regularly — always verify current rates directly with the provider before opening an account.

Nuvara may receive a referral fee if you open an account through these links. This is not financial advice — please do your own research and check current rates and terms directly with each provider.
