"Be hungry, be curious but mostly be curious" is the phrase that Iqbal embodies everyday. Having a curious mind might get a cat killed but so far it has kept Iqbal alive and well. As a Biochemistry major from University of Manchester, he applies the scientific thinking towards financial concept and aims to simplify it at the best of his ability to the Malay-language reader. Iqbal writes on anything related to financial/general reading in Malay and is currently pursuing Certified Financial Planner (CFP CERT TM) accreditation. In addition, he is licensed by Federation of Investment Managers Malaysia (FIMM) and Malaysian Takaful Association (MTA). He spends most of his free time reading a bunch of random stuff and when he's not with books, you can find him travelling to the rarest of places that include Azerbaijan, Georgia, Faroe Islands, Macedonia, Latvia and Sri Lanka.
