Wahed has appointed Mohsin Siddiqui to succeed Junaid Wahedna, the founder of Wahed, as the company’s CEO.
Mohsin joined Wahed last year as COO from a UK-based regtech firm where he served as chief revenue officer. Mohsin began his career at New York-based online trading platform, OANDA.
Junaid, who founded Wahed in 2017, is taking on a new role as chairman of the digital investment management platform.
“More important than his decorated CV, Mohsin has a deep and personal connection with our mission and values and a clear understanding of why over 350,000 clients choose to invest with Wahed. In less than a year as COO, he has made an immediate impact on the business and I have complete confidence that he is the right person to continue to drive Wahed’s growth,” said Junaid.
