I'm Charlotte Sinclair, an Islamic finance investment specialist focusing on Shariah-compliant structures across the UAE's diverse economic sectors. With my background in religious studies from Oxford University and Islamic economics from the International Centre for Education in Islamic Finance in Malaysia, I develop innovative financial instruments that align with both religious principles and modern investment objectives. After establishing Shariah-compliant funds across Southeast Asia and the Middle East, I relocated to Dubai five years ago to expand ethical investment frameworks throughout the Emirates. Currently, I advise government entities, family offices, and international institutions on structuring sukuk issuances, halal venture capital funds, and ethical investment portfolios that respect Islamic principles while delivering competitive returns, helping position the UAE as a global center for Islamic finance innovation.
