The author

A. Allazim

A banker explaining the other side of the desk.

A. Allazim has worked as a Relationship Manager with American Express and First Abu Dhabi Bank, after a career in lifestyle management and hospitality, and holds a baccalaureate in economics and the International Certificate in Wealth and Investment Management (ICWIM) from the Chartered Institute for Securities & Investment.

That is the career behind the book: years across the desk from customers, seeing how products are designed, priced, sold and measured, and what people are rarely told. Money, Explained From the Inside puts that view in plain words.

Why this book

Most adults are expected to make decisions about loans, cards, mortgages, insurance, pensions and investments that nobody ever taught them to make. The book exists because that gap is wide, and the people on the other side of it have been trained.
