HBZ bank has a Shariah compliant 'forward cover' insurance for currency trading.

Question

HBZ bank has a Shariah compliant 'forward cover' insurance for currency trading. Is this type of insurance permissible?

HBZ Bank is worse than even Al-barakah Bank. HBZ openly advertises its interest deals. The 'forward cover' is haraam. There is no shariah-compliant insurance scheme.
