From the outset, investing can seem intricate and complex. Investment professionals use terminology which, while native tongue to them, is often unrecognisable to those not in the investment community. At Rathbones, we believe in education to enhance your understanding of the wealth management environment, and we think it is particularly important to ensure that women are equipped to fulfil their financial goals through the power of investing. Once you understand your money, you are better equipped to make informed decisions.
