Executive Profile

A cross-functional operator at the intersection of commerce and law.

Selim Hossain operates a rare dual-mandate practice — leading global trade operations at SM Prime International Trading while practising as an apprentice lawyer at Dhaka Judge Court. The combination produces clean, regulator-grade execution across sourcing, export, banking instruments, and dispute exposure.

From negotiating apple shipments in China to structuring L/Cs through SWIFT and advising on EU market entry, the practice is built on documentation discipline, fiscal hygiene, and long-standing supplier relationships across Asia and the GCC.
