Wahed

Wahed (operating at wahed.com) is a digital Islamic fintech and asset management platform engineered for democratizing Shariah-compliant investing. Founded in an unspecified year and headquartered in New York City, Wahed bridges the gap between ethical finance and accessibility, offering a modern alternative to traditional investment models that often exclude or complicate compliance with Islamic financial principles. Under the hood, the platform leverages technology to provide transparent, low-cost exposure to stock markets, real estate, and gold—all vetted for Shariah compliance. This allows individual investors to align their portfolios with their values without sacrificing flexibility, starting with as little as $100 and requiring no long-term commitments. Backed by a $94.74 million total funding round, including a $50 million Series B valuation at $300 million in June 2022, Wahed operates across nine licensed jurisdictions, positioning itself as a global leader in ethical fintech.
