A NON-PROFIT INVESTING IN YOUR FINANCIAL LITERACY
LET'S TALK MONEY, FREELY!
GJWHF$ believes in economic empowerment; everybody, at any age, can create a pathway towards financial freedom. Through open, honest conversations we build knowledge. And, through knowledge, we build the confidence we need to make smart financial decisions.
Take control of your own wealth creation. It won't cost you a cent.
Our Purpose
We are a community of women committed to eradicating the gender investment gap by empowering each other to invest in ourselves through education, communication, and taking action.
We believe each individual is accountable for their own financial future. Yet, women invest less, less often, and later in life than men do. This has resulted in women having 25% less wealth than men.
So, why are we so passive?

Talking money is seen as a taboo topic, especially for women.
Don’t believe us? When was the last time you had lunch or coffee with a friend and spoke in detail about your portfolios?
The more comfortable we are talking about money:
the more investment knowledge we are gaining (and sharing).
the less investment opportunities we miss.
the more negotiation power we have (and the lower the gender pay gap).
the more life choices there will be available to us.

Build confidence by learning alongside other women – with structure, accountability and support.

"As a beginner investor, I find it quite easy to do asset class identification, look at past return, adjust my portfolio from time to time, and invest regularly and diversely with discipline for long term investment on Interactive Broker. I learnt these from GJWHF seminars."

“One ally lead commented on how eye-opening the session was because he caught himself in a lot of unconscious biases regarding investing.”
