🌟 Maxime Carmignac is the Managing Director of Carmignac UK - an asset management firm with €41.7bn of assets under management. 💸 Today, we talk about asset management, the ways in which women investors need to empower each other, tackling gender inequalities, and more. 1/ Women are holding an increasing amount of money, yet they're still poorly addressed by the financial community, which is something Maxime is keen to change.2/ Carmignac is a company owned by both the Carmignac family and their employees, and Maxime explains what asset management is and what it’s like to run a family business.  3/ While women are less assertive than men, they also tend to focus on longer-term investment gains rather than short-term wins, and are more concerned with sustainable investing, so Maxime offers her investment advice to women as well as the importance of ESG.You can follow and connect with Maxime at:https://www.carmignac.co.uk/ Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/maxime-carmignac/ Our podcast sponsor Moneybox is an award winning app helping people reach their goals and build wealth with confidence.

🌟Bonnie Lister Parsons is the founder and CEO of The School of SOS. Her mission is to empower a generation of Queens to believe in themselves, using dance as a source of strength, power and confidence which they can carry through to every aspect of their lives.💸The exceptional energy and passion that Bonnie has for dance and empowering women is infectious. However, funding her 8-year strong business wasn’t always easy. After a long journey, Bonnie eventually raised an all-female investment round to take School of SOS to the next level. 💥 Today on The Wallet: 1/ As a professional dancer, Bonnie knew how powerful dance could be in boosting self-confidence, and she talks about how she came about the idea of creating The School of SOS, as well as her initial fundraising journey. 2/ Raising money is laden with obstacles, so Bonnie discusses the stumbling blocks she came across while trying to fundraise, from the assumptions that everyone has wealthy family and friends to the unique challenges that women entrepreneurs face. 3/ Starting a business always involves a level of risk, and Bonnie shares how she feels about taking a leap of faith into being a founder, as well as why she’s never had a business partner.You can follow and connect with Bonnie at:Twitter @BonnieParsonsInstagram @SchoolOfSOSSome of our guests:Camille Deniau: https://projectrootsart.com/Carmel Dickinson: https://www.linkedin.com/in/carmel-dickinson-6673733/Claire Trachet: https://www.trachet.co/ Our podcast sponsor Moneybox is an award winning app helping people reach their goals and build wealth with confidence.
