Administrative Studies, Bachelor of Administrative Studies (BAS) 2011
Business Administration, Master of Business Administration (MBA) 2020

Nadeem has a diverse capital markets background, with experience on both the buy-side and sell-side, fixed income trading, operations, and most recently held the position of Vice President, Head of Investment Strategy/Investment Strategist with Raymond James Ltd.

What sets Nadeem apart from many of his peers is his unconventional start in the financial world. He began his career as an entrepreneur, co-founding a custom automotive garage called Modifying Motorsports Ltd. in Toronto during his early teens. This entrepreneurial experience instilled in him a unique perspective on business and finance, as well as a strong work ethic and a willingness to take risks.

Nadeem is a CFA (Chartered Financial Analyst) charter holder. He has also earned his MBA from the York University Schulich School of Business, and holds a Bachelor of Commerce degree specialized in Finance, also from York University.

York University (undergrad and postgrad studies) has provided me with the necessary hard/soft skills necessary to advance in my personal/professional career. Knowledge is power, and my thirst for knowledge is never ending. This has enabled me to give back and help so many people around me. This is my life purpose - to positively affect the lives of all those around me with the knowledge and experiences I have gained over the years.
