We asked Abou El Saad the usual questions to find out how a successful community member starts their day and threw in a few more to learn how he adjusts to Ramadan and what he looks forward to during the holy month.

Additionally, I\u2019m President of CFA Society Egypt and Vice Chairman of the Egyptian Investment Management Association. My work across the two associations focuses on advancing and diversifying Egypt\u2019s capital markets, ensuring they align with global best practices. Investment and capital markets have been my foremost passion for over 25 years \u2014 the time I spent working in this industry.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Introducing new investment products to the market has been the linchpin of Azimut\u2019s <\/strong><strong>strategy<\/strong><strong>. <\/strong>Azimut was the first non-bank financial institution to get licensed to launch investment funds, which were previously limited to banks and their clients. We were the first in the local market to launch a <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/373fda24-6907-4c8b-bb56-623da5e5a367\/regulators-just-greenlit-egypt%e2%80%99s-first-ever-gold-investment-fund.-plus:-data-center-upgrade,-new-sawari-tech-fund,-oil-+-gas-exploration.\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">gold investment fund<\/a>, a fund investing in private ins. funds, and a charitable investment fund \u2014 namely the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/0c060529-bc39-4959-b25d-59c6efd8a748\/\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Ataa Fund<\/a>, which supports people with disabilities. We now manage a total of 15 investment funds. We also worked with the Financial Regulatory Authority to help set the regulatory framework that would allow brokerage firms to market investment funds and leverage tech-based platforms that make financial products more accessible.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Technology underpins our goal of reaching a broader audience. <\/strong>We recently <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/api.azimut.eg\/storage\/reports\/July2024\/Y9OwhPhc9bkYek8xYpDs.pdf\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">secured<\/a> the FRA\u2019s approval to launch digital investment funds, which positions us to reach a wider client base. As part of this vision, we're already providing investment tools to many leading fintech firms and digital platforms \u2014 such as Valu, MNT-Halan, Thndr, Menthum, Fawry, and Belbaqy, among others.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Blockchain is the next frontier for investment management, both globally and locally.<\/strong> After years of setting up a fintech ecosystem in the local market, Azimut is gearing up to move all its investment activities to blockchain-based infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>As CEO of Azimut Egypt, I set the company\u2019s strategic direction, drive innovation, and <\/strong><strong>introduce best practices to the local market. <\/strong>I start my day by catching up on financial markets, both globally and locally. I then check in on all the new investment products and asset management tools we\u2019re currently developing. We have a massive pipeline of ideas that we\u2019re working on \u2014 we essentially need to clone ourselves to execute them all.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>I don\u2019t follow a strict morning routine.<\/strong> I usually wake up around 8am and read EnterpriseAM on my way to the office. I arrive by 9am and spend the first 30 minutes reviewing emails and catching up on financial news before I hop into a meeting with my team for another 30 minutes. The rest of my day is made up of follow-ups, client meetings, and internal meetings about new and upcoming products \u2014 sometimes until 6-8pm.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Exercise and prayer are my daily constants.<\/strong> Working out helps me release stress and negative energy. So I spend about an hour each day between 6-7pm at the gym after work. In Ramadan, I shift workouts to pre-Iftar \u2014 I play sports with my kids or watch my son\u2019s football matches at the Ramadan tournament. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>My Ramadan schedule is more structured<\/strong>, with shorter work hours and more time for reflection. The slower pace also helps me focus better and gives me time to think of new investment products.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Supporting people with disabilities is a personal priority.<\/strong> My only sister, who is five years older, has special needs, and I consider her my true inheritance in life, especially after our father passed away. I visit her every weekend in Alexandria. She inspired me to launch the first school for people with disabilities in Egypt and help establish Ataa Fund.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Technology serves as my personal assistant. <\/strong>I rely on to-do lists and my phone calendar to organize everything from business meetings to family commitments, including my son\u2019s football matches.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>My work and personal life greatly overlap. <\/strong>My clients and colleagues are the friends I spend most of my time with outside of work hours. I\u2019m also fortunate to have a wife who works in the same field. It helps her understand my commitments and the nature of my work. We have two sons \u2014 Adham, a 16-year-old football player, and Salim, who is nine \u2014 and they are my closest friends. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Similarly, my personal and professional goals are intertwined.<\/strong> I want to leave a lasting mark on Egypt\u2019s investment landscape and make investing as common as food, healthcare, or education. The macroeconomic developments we\u2019ve seen over the past years \u2014 inflation, high interest rates, and a declining EGP \u2014 present the perfect chance to expand investment culture to all segments of society.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The best advice I\u2019ve ever received was to<\/strong> <strong>stay flexible and never make decisions without <\/strong><strong>thorough research. <\/strong>Also, \u201cThe biggest risk is not taking any risks,\u201d a quote from Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, has profoundly impacted me. When you avoid taking action for fear of failure, you harm your chances of success.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Investment and capital markets have been my foremost passion for over 25 years<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":662678,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"newspack_ads_suppress_ads":false,"newspack_popups_has_disabled_popups":false,"newspack_sponsor_sponsorship_scope":"","newspack_sponsor_native_byline_display":"inherit","newspack_sponsor_native_category_display":"inherit","newspack_sponsor_underwriter_style":"inherit","newspack_sponsor_underwriter_placement":"inherit","ep_exclude_from_search":false,"_primary_brand":0,"newspack_featured_image_position":"","newspack_post_subtitle":"","newspack_article_summary_title":"Overview:","newspack_article_summary":"","newspack_hide_updated_date":false,"newspack_show_updated_date":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[7156],"tags":[3305,72,387],"brand":[],"newspack_spnsrs_tax":[],"class_list":["post-662677","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-my-morning-routine","tag-azimut-egypt-asset-management","tag-enterpriseam","tag-my-morning-routine","wpautop","entry"],"acf":{"mongo_id":"acd67a74-c3cf-4a0e-81ad-df4ae3df2e38","order":"16","is_powered_by":true,"story_type":"1","photo_url":"https:\/\/ent.news\/2025\/3\/1638.jpg","photo_position":"above","homepage_title":"","full_issue_title":"My Ramadan Routine: Ahmed Abou El Saad, CEO of Azimut Egypt","related_issue":[662648],"teaser":"Investment and capital markets have been my foremost passion for over 25 years","voice_url":"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/ent.news\/audio\/2025\/3\/.f8d10e61-dc23-4f2a-a3eb-3a0b1f122be7.mp3"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.1 (Yoast SEO v27.1.1) -
