Finance for women: the importance of support networks

The talk was organized by the Gender and Diversity Perspective Commission of the port institution with the objective of providing tools to women to obtain greater financial independence.

“In general, women do not seek prominence, It is hard for us to say ‘che, I want that salary increase’. It is hard for us to get out of the desk. (…) Hence my idea of ​​creating support and connect networks with women to dare to take the first stepsboth in finance and in any life project, ”Vinitzky said.

As for independence in society, he indicated that achieving economic well -being is indispensable: “The true independence of the woman is the economic one. There should be no doubt about that. When I started working in banks I did not take care of my finances, I did not know what to do, just put something under the mattress. I did not know how to invest. And today, with education and more than 25 years of career, I can not only do it but I want to transmit that knowledge.”

And he added: “What gives us independence is education. The unique women’s network (the Vinitzky program) was designed to strengthen financial education. We realized that when they administer their finances women, even the directives, did not know how to start. Thus we were creating financial training programs from different levels, giving practical classes from the most basic to the most complex ”.
