The online Halal investing platform Wahed has promoted its Chief Operating Officer Mohsin Siddiqui to the role of Chief Exectutive Officer, succeeding Junaid Wahedna, who has moved to Chairman of the company.

Mohsin joined Wahed in June 2023 as COO, with overall PL responsibility across the entire firm, which includes offices in the US, Malaysia, the UK, the UAE, and India. 

"We were very fortunate one year ago to have Mohsin join us as our Chief Operating Officer. His impact on the firm was immediate, and we ended the year with over 100% revenue growth, a 33% decrease in costs, and new exciting lines of product being launched imminently," commented Junaid Wahedna.

Mohsin started his career at OANDA, a New York-based online trading fintech, where he served as the Chief Customer Officer and Managing Director. During his eight-year stint at OANDA, he grew OANDA's core presence in the U.S. and Canadian markets and spearheaded its expansion into several APAC markets. In July 2020, he left for the UK-based RegTech company ComplyAdvantage as Chief Revenue Officer.

"Mohsin, congratulations on your new position. Our teammates and clients couldn't be more fortunate to have you at the helm. May God bless you and our team in this increasingly important mission and grant us all success," added Junaid.

“I'm honored and excited for the journey ahead. Working with Junaid W. and the Wahed team has been a dream come true!" shared Mohsin on LinkedIn.
