Laeeq Ahmad — CEO
I had no finance degree. No family background in investing. No mentor in Karachi or on Wall Street. What I had was one question: why do most Pakistanis work their entire lives and still retire with nothing? That question became Sarmaaya.pk — Pakistan's leading financial research and portfolio tracking platform, serving tens of thousands of active investors across the country. The hard truth I found: Pakistanis are not bad at earning. They are just never taught what to do with it. That is what Sarmaaya exists to fix. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ WHAT WE OFFER ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📊 Real-time PSX data, charts & fundamental analysis 📈 Portfolio tracking — stocks, mutual funds, forex & commodities 🎓 Training programmes — from basics to advanced trading & investing 💡 ZarBySarmaaya — our systematic wealth-building tool 8,000+ students trained across 32 countries. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ MY JOURNEY ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🎙️ 65+ podcast episodes — featuring CEOs, economists & government ministers 🏛️ Speaker at UBL, NUST & leading corporates on financial literacy 📚 Programmes delivered: Money Mindset · Investment Mastery · Trading Mastery · Forex & Crypto Fundamentals 🏗️ Built Pakistan's most recognised investment platform — with zero formal finance education 🎓 NUST Graduate | Founder, Sarmaaya.pk & KYE App ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ MY INVESTING PHILOSOPHY ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ I run two portfolios — one for short-term trends, one for long-term wealth through blue-chip dividend stocks. I never spend dividends. I reinvest them. Discipline and patience beat capital every time. Most people fail at investing not because they lack money — but because they lack a system. That belief is the foundation of everything we teach. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ LET'S CONNECT ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🔗 sarmaaya.pk 🎓 sarmaaya.pk/trainings 📩 Open to partnerships, collaborations & speaking engagements — message me directly.
