Abstract: Despite the fact that contemporary insurance contracts are simple to read, this does not imply that they are simple to comprehend. Most people rely on trust when purchasing insurance. They trust the insurance agent to recommend and obtain appropriate coverage. Takaful agents act as consumers' representatives in managing their takaful plan participation procedures, while also providing consumers with transparent and clear information about takaful plans. This study is mainly focused on identifying the factors influencing ethical behavioral intention among takaful agents. Therefore, this study examines the relationship between attitude, subjective norms and perceived behavioral control on ethical behavioral intention among insurance agents by adopting the Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB). A total of 100 questionnaires were collected from 100 Takaful agents from the Family agency and General Agency. To evaluate the raw data, the paper used the non-probability sampling technique and analyzed it by conducting reliability analysis, correlation analysis, and regression analysis. The results of this study indicated that there was a significant relationship between attitude and subjective norms toward ethical behavioral intention as the predictors. Hence, these findings assist the practitioners, particularly takaful providers in strategizing their efforts in terms of training aspects for their respective takaful agents.
