Establishing a sharia-based bank at Bank Riau Kepri everything must be prepared and many other requirements, such as quality studies and surveys about the preferences of its customers and the people of Riau itself, and the most important thing is in terms of the budget that has been said to have limitations.

Regarding BRK Syariah, the OJK Riau will continue to support if the BRK system change changes by implementing the Sharia system or also if establishing the BRK Syariah in accordance with the Malay community which is synonymous with Islamic law.

Technically, many things that the BRK must prepare for the conversion include the readiness of BRK employees, Science and Technology, Product Operational Standards, and others, and most importantly it takes sufficient time to prepare.

And thus, the Islamic system if in the BRK Syariah banking there will no longer be a bank interest that is identical to usury, because it is not justified in Islamic teachings. And the non-detrimental Islamic banking system from a business aspect will actually accelerate the development of BRK itself.
