I work as a wealth manager for a national firm. As part of my job I recommend clients invest in the firms DFM (discretionary fund manager) portfolios. Naturally these portfolios contain interest producing investments such as gilts and bonds. My client are both muslims and non Muslims, is my job haram?
Assalaamu alaykum,
If you encourage or direct or advise investments to be made in bonds and gilts or any other non-compliant asset class, then this activity is not permissible. Income in lieu of this is not lawful either.
Allah knows best
