Assalamu Alaykum,
I’ve been looking for a job in finance for quite some while now since I graduated and alhamdulilah finally received an offer to a firm I’m very interested in. The company is a private equity firm that invests in permissible industries (manufacturing, healthcare, automotive, etc.). And the role that I accepted is an analyst role where my responsibilities would consist of analyzing potential investments, doing industry research and providing strategic guidance to existing portfolio companies.
However, due to the fact that private equity typically uses debt to finance their investments, I wanted to know if my role and income would be considered halal. Looking for advice and can definitely give more info if it’s material.
JazakAllah Khayran
