Attended an impactful session at the Islamic Finance Conference at Harvard featuring inspiring panelists, including our very own Innate Capital Partners Chair, Dr. Aamir A. Rehman. His insights along with the panelists added a fresh perspective on the concepts of wealth and legacy that extend far beyond financial gains. Key Takeaways: ??True Wealth Goes Beyond Financial Assets: Professor Aamir shared a powerful story of his first-generation student who felt his parents were leaving him “nothing.” ?Yet, he shared with him the wisdom of how they’d instilled values like work ethic, a love for learning, and a vision for the future—gifts more enduring than any financial inheritance. A memorable reminder that true inheritance isn’t always reflected on a balance sheet. ??Value-Driven Finance is Gaining Ground in the U.S.: Islamic finance isn’t a foreign concept here in North America; major players like GE and Goldman Sachs have issued Sukuk's, offering value-aligned fixed income investment options. Many firms—including some in Innate's portfolio—offer a variety of vehicles that align with both financial goals and principles. It’s clear our values can coexist with financial growth. ?? Legacy Through Impactful Deeds: A timeless Hadith on leaving a legacy that endures beyond our lifetimes; charity that continues, knowledge that benefits others, and the prayers of our children. A profound reminder that our true impact—whether through generosity, mentorship, or nurturing—lasts in ways money cannot. ??A Robust Ecosystem of Support: Today’s value-driven wealth landscape includes a network of providers - who can help maximize returns while staying aligned with our principles. Today’s value-driven wealth management landscape is rich with service providers— from specialized investment managers to CPAs and fractional CFOs (spoiler alert: I may know a few!)—who can help maximize returns and build strategies aligned with your values. ????What values or lessons do you believe are the most valuable to pass down? Drop your thoughts in the comments—I’d love to hear what ‘true intergenerational wealth and leaving a legacy’ means to you. Thanks to all the panelists for shedding light on deploying intergenerational wealth and success.
