Is Your Money Doing What You Think It Is?
Is Your Money Doing What You Think It Is?
An Accessible Introduction to Ethical Finance
8 October 2026 | 5:30 PM onwards
London | Location TBC
Where does your money actually go?
We use money every day, but how often do we stop to think about what happens to it after we spend, save or invest it?
Join Ethiqh for our Welcome Event, an engaging and accessible introduction to ethical and Islamic finance. Through an insightful conversation with our special guest speaker, followed by an audience Q&A and networking, we’ll explore how our financial choices connect to questions of ethics, responsibility and trust.
Whether you already know about Islamic finance or have never thought about it before, this event is designed for you. No prior financial knowledge is required.
What we’ll explore
💰 Where does your money go?
What happens to our money once it leaves our hands — and what should we know about the institutions and activities it supports?
⚖️ Responsibility in ethical and Islamic finance
How should we think about money beyond simply making a return? What role do values, ethics and responsibility play in financial decision-making?
🔮 The future of money and finance
Can ethical alternatives become more accessible and credible? What barriers exist, and how can trust be built in a changing financial landscape?
