I am a Visiting Professor at the ICMA Centre, Henley Business School, University of Reading, UK with a specialism in Islamic Finance. I have lectured on this subject and supervise doctoral research. Previously, I was Professor of Financial Management at the University of Surrey and Professor of Financial Sector Accounting at Bangor University. I have acted as consultant to the Islamic Financial Services Board, the International Islamic Liquidity Management Corporation and the Accounting and Auditing Organization for Islamic Financial Institutions. I hold qualifications as a UK Chartered Accountant, an Oxford MA (in Philosophy, Politics and Economics) and a PhD from the University of Surrey, I am a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts.

In total, 51 haplotypes were identified. Pairwise genetic distances ranged from 0% to 6.33% with an average value +/- SD of 3.01% +/- 1.18%, indicating little DNA differentiation among the European eel population. None of the node bifurcations of the neighbor-joining phylogenetic tree was strongly supported, suggesting that all European eels derive from a common genetic pool. The same result was obtained by a statistical test that confirmed the absence of geographic subdivision in the genotypes of the European eel population. The reported genetic homogeneity of the European eel is discussed in relation to different hypothetical life history scenarios.
