Abstract

Based on 50 relevant articles from year 2007 until 2017 in Malaysia, 20 of them were found to relate to the demographic factors that affected demand of family takaful. The results of this study were divided into five (5) frequencies, specifically gender 4/20, religiosity 5/20, age 6/20, level of education 11/20, and income 12/20. Therefore, financial income was the most important demographic factor in increasing the demand of family takaful.
