Alumni Entrepreneur: Fadhel AlMarar Founder of Tharwa Learning Solutions

Fadhel AlMarar, CFA, CAIA, ZU BA Alumni of 2019 from the College of Business Majored in Finance #Proud_ZUAlumni

A Passion for Development and Education

From the moment he stepped onto Zayed University’s campus, Fadhel Al Marar believed that knowledge is the greatest catalyst for personal and professional growth. Graduating in 2019 with Outstanding Student Award with appearances on the Dean’s List in all semesters of enrollment, he demonstrated early on both his intellectual rigor and commitment to excellence.

Building Expertise in Capital Markets

After graduation, Fadhel plunged into the world of Capital Markets, where he developed a strategic, data‑driven approach to investment analysis. To deepen his expertise and expand his toolkit, he pursued—and passed—the rigorous exams to earn both the Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) and Chartered Alternative Investment Analyst (CAIA) charters. These milestones not only validated his mastery of equity research, fixed income, derivatives, and alternative assets, but also cemented his reputation as a rising finance professional.

The Birth of Tharwa Learning Solutions

Yet Fadhel’s vision went beyond personal achievement. He saw a gap: many talented candidates lacked access to high‑quality, results‑oriented training for the world’s top finance certifications. In 2023, he founded Tharwa Learning Solutions—a company born from his passion for development and a deep belief in “thoughtful investing” in people’s potential.

Tharwa’s mission:

To equip aspiring finance professionals with cutting‑edge study materials, expert‑led courses, and personalized coaching—ensuring they not only pass their exams but thrive in their careers.

  • Adaptability: Iterating course content based on student feedback
