Answer
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
May Allah increase your consciousness of earning halaal income. May Allah grant you halaal and wholesome income. Aameen.
In order for us to issue you a ruling, we need to know your role in the investment bank. However, the concept of underwriting is not permissible.
And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
