Personal profile
Biography
I attained my BSc (Hons) and PhD from the University of Manchester in Organic Chemistry. I subsequently moved into Finance obtaining a Masters (Distinction) in Islamic Banking, Finance and Management from the University of Gloucestershire.
I completed my PGCE (Distinction) in Higher Education at Coventry University and I am a Senior Fellow of the Higher Education Academy. I specialise in Islamic Finance and teach both undergraduate and postgraduate students.
Research Interests
Islamic Banking; Islamic Finance; Takaful (Islamic insurance)
Vision Statement
I conducted some research on why a UK based Islamic Insurance provider (Salaam) failed within two years of operation. It was a case study which provided a rich insight into the corporate failure and lessons to be derived for the Takaful industry. Based on this research, I was invited to present a Masterclass to Islamic Finance practitioners at the International Takaful Summit held in February, 2015.
