Researcher at University of Dhaka
I’m a Banking and Insurance student at the University of Dhaka’s Faculty of Business Studies, where I hold a 3.90 GPA and work as a Teaching Assistant for Financial Markets and Institutions. Alongside my studies, I’m Operations Lead at Bangladesh Angels Network, where I’ve built valuation and three-statement models for early-stage companies, helped design the network’s first micro-investment SPV, and drafted funding applications to bodies such as the Global Innovation Lab for Climate Finance and Grand Challenges Canada. My independent research applies the RCO framework to compare Islamic and conventional banks in Bangladesh. I’m sitting CFA Level 1 in May 2027 and plan to pursue graduate research in finance. Research interests Banking structure and performance in emerging markets: Islamic vs. conventional banking, risk, and efficiency in Bangladesh (your RCO paper).

Investment vehicles and regulation: SPV and pooled micro-investment structures, and how securities regulators shape access to private markets. Climate and development finance: blended finance and grant-to-investment pathways for climate and impact ventures.
