Insurance growth reach 75%  which 60% came from family takaful. Family takaful implements separation on fund management. Fund management with fund separation is in line with Shariah Split Fund Theory which in practice requires proportion. The method used in the research data is panel data regression.

The dependent variable of this study is the proportion of tabarru’fund (Tit). The sample was chosen by using purposive sampling method and obtained sample member as many as 15 companies of Takaful. The results of this study indicate that claims affect the proportion of tabarru’ fund and these variables as determinant of tabarru’ fund proportion. While retakaful have not positive effect on the proportion of tabarru’ fund, and then commission fees and administrative and general expenses have not negative effect on the proportion of tabarru’ fund.
