I speak about what actually moves money.
Capital, and the mechanics of it: how it gets raised, held, taxed and passed on. I talk about the version I have seen from the professional side of the desk.
Where I have spoken
Future Innovation Summit
Vatican City. Listed speaker.
Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange
Opening bell ceremony, and the Silver Coin.
World Blockchain Summit
Dubai. Panel on capital and digital assets.
Bloomberg Asharq
Interview. From self-made to institutional allocation.
CNBC Arabia
Weekly market segment, Thursdays, Dubai time.
Awwal Malyoun
Host. A weekly financial education programme.
Four talks
Each one gets rebuilt for your audience. I ask who is in the room before I write a word.
The decisions underneath the return
Audiences get taught what to buy. The part that decides how much they keep is what happens after they own it: what it is borrowed against, where it is taxed, whose name it sits in. I work the numbers through on stage so the room can see the difference.
What the desk taught me that the classroom did not
Equity research, then Nasdaq, then running money at institutional size. How professional capital actually behaves underneath the price, why most retail advice describes a market that does not exist, and what changes when you are answerable for somebody else's money.
Being the only one in the room
A Moroccan teenager arrives on a scholarship and ends up chief investment officer in the DIFC. I keep this one practical: what being underestimated actually costs, and what works when you cannot rely on being liked.
From building it to selling it
I have started companies, watched some fail, and sold others. Now I sit on the investing side and see the same mistakes from the opposite chair. What founders get wrong about value, and what investors get wrong about founders.
However you need it
Most organisers forget to ask about moderation. A good moderator will save a flat panel.
30 to 60 minutes
A full talk, written for your room. Nothing lifted off a shelf.
30 to 45 minutes
Interviewed on stage. Send the questions and I will tell you honestly what I can answer.
Any length
On the panel, or moderating it. Moderating is the harder job of the two.
60 to 90 minutes
Workshop for a fund, a family office or a leadership team. No recording, franker conversation.

Fee depends on format, travel and rights. Tell me the budget range and I will tell you straight away whether it works.
