DSP BlackRock MF launched the “Take control of your finances’’ campaign under the aegis of ‘Winvestor’- an investor education initiative empowering women to take independent and informed investment decisions.
The program aims at encouraging men and women to ‘Take a pledge’, to inspire women to make their own investment decisions. One can take the pledge at www.iwinvest.in. After taking a pledge, women can also register for a free counselling session on investment planning with an expert investment advisor, to equip themselves with knowledge related to investment choices and to empower themselves with a suitable financial plan. Women, as well as men, can also encourage other women to register for the session, says the press release issued by the company.
Aditi Kothari Desai, EVP, Head - Sales and Marketing, DSP BlackRock said, “The campaign reinforces our commitment of promoting an ecosystem where women are passionate about their long-term financial goals and are equipped to manage their investments well. This is not a women-only movement, this is part of a larger campaign that is also being supported by men from all across India. Through this campaign, we hope to influence a behavioural shift towards the involvement of women in investment decision making.”
