Ethical Investment Platforms

Wahed Invest is a Digital Halal-Focused Ethical Investing Platform

— June 18, 2018 — Social Good
Wahed Invest, the world's first digital halal-focused ethical investing platform, has launched mobile apps for iOS and Android, enabling people to invest ethically wherever they are located. The apps compliment Wahed's web-based service.

Wahed’s easy-to-use digital investing platform is the first automated Halal-focused system that is overseen by an Ethical Review Board, preventing concerned investors from investing in companies that do not agree with their values, like companies involved in the liquor, firearms, gambling and tobacco industries. The platform also screens investments that generate profit from interest and those that do not comply with certain debt ratios.

Using Wahed, individuals can get an optimized and diversified halal portfolio, open an account, securely link their bank accounts to their investment portfolios, quickly access their funds, deposit money into accounts and monitor the performance of their portfolios, all from their smartphone.

Practicing Muslims believe in a complete approach to embracing Halal values but until recently, have lacked the ability to easily incorporate investing into their ethical practices. Wahed is the leading full-service Halal-focused investing platform for the Islamic community, giving Muslims and other Americans the opportunity to confidently and ethically invest in their futures.
Trend Themes
1. Digital Ethical Investing - Wahed Invest's digital platform allows investors to easily invest in ethical portfolios that align with their values.
2. Halal-focused Investing - Wahed's focus on halal investing provides a unique opportunity for Muslim investors to invest ethically.
3. Mobile Investment Apps - Wahed's mobile apps for iOS and Android enable investors to access their portfolios and make ethical investments on-the-go.
Industry Implications
1. Financial Technology - Wahed Invest's digital platform and mobile apps disrupt the traditional investment industry by offering an automated and ethical approach to investing.
2. Islamic Finance - Wahed's halal-focused investing platform caters to the specific needs of the Islamic community, providing them with a dedicated avenue for ethical investments.
3. Mobile Applications - Wahed's mobile apps cater to the growing demand for convenient and accessible investment tools, empowering users to make ethical investment decisions anytime, anywhere.
