Principles of Investing - To to actually start investing

● You have accumulated a certain wealth, but you have no idea what to do with it?

● You are scared of the capital markets and you are not sure which investment is less risky?

● You are not sure about talking to you financial advisor, as you sense he or she is mainly selling products to you that are not in your favour?

● Your have read a bunch of articles or even books, but the practicality is missing?

Clara felt the same way and it really put her off - even though she worked at a bank. Back then she was looking for a structure and simple instruction to get started. Her goal was no longer "to do something" - meaning winging it - but to have her money under control.

10 years later, a few books later and going through the education of being a certified financial planner, she is happy to share her knowledge with you. Today she is no longer afraid of her bank statement - why? Because she finally has a plan for her money. If you want to learn more about what she has learned on her journey, please sign-up for the webinar.

Main topics:

● Basic principles behind investing

● How to manage risk - also in times of crises

● How to implement a portfolio that fits your lifestyle and situation

● How to manage your wealth in the long terms

Speaker:

Clara Creitz has been working in the financial industry for more than 10 years in various positions for insurance companies and private banks. One of her key areas of focus is financial education as I have developed many programs for financial advisors as well as clients. She is a certified financial planner (CFP) and the founder of Finelles (https://buff.ly/3rvcuTH). Her goal is to help women to gain financial competence and confidence for more financial empowerment and freedom.

FINOVATE explores cybersecurity
Any organization that facilitates financial transactions is subject to the complex and evolving government regulations. Financial institutions, such as FinTechs, Credit Unions and Banks, must have a fraud and dispute process.
But that process doesn’t have to be manual or inefficient. By leveraging automated dispute resolution technology, companies can continue to revolutionize their industries without succumbing to its age-old difficulty of managing fraud and disputes. Join us to our background talks on cybersecurity in December 2022. Please send us a note here https://buff.ly/3Cozmcx

Women are risk aware not risk adverse!

I often hear that women are risk adverse. Even women say that about themselves and other women. But actually it is not ture: They are risk aware not risk adverse. women can do all the nice things men do: Scuba diving, investing into venture capital, parachuting, they just want to understand the risk involved and how to mititgate it. It does not mean they do not do it! It means they first think and prepare! They are adventurous in the best sense of the word
