Having worked for such institutions as Barclays Bank, Hussain witnessed the carnage of the global financial crises, firsthand. His curiosity over how institutions that are entrusted with the savings of millions of people worldwide can allow traders to gamble with these monies, and lead these institutions to bankruptcy led Hussain to further develop his understanding of the architecture of the major financial systems. He explored what possibilities Islamic finance had to offer as an alternative system and has published two works on the subject: Contracts and Deals in Islamic Finance: A User's Guide to Cash Flows, Balance Sheets and Capital Structures (Hayat: Kureshi, Wiley) and Financial Engineering in Islamic Finance, the Way Forward: A Case for Islamic Derivatives (Hayat: Hussain: Mukhsia, Patridge).
Hussain is a regular contributor to the journal Islamic Finance News and offers lectures in various universities in his home country of Pakistan. He can be contacted at husseinkureshi@gmail.com.visualizza meno
