The reasons we established Female Finance by froots
Unfortunately, in our society, it's still necessary to address topics like the gender pay gap and pension pay gap. That's why we're particularly concerned about women and their finances. We've made it our mission to raise awareness about these issues.
We women are classic savers, and our money is losing value
Under the pretext of perceived security, the majority of us still opt for products like building society contracts or traditional savings accounts. However, due to the current interest rates and high inflation, there's no way around the capital market to make meaningful provisions. It's not about avoiding risks but actively managing them.
We women take on societal roles, and our pension entitlement decreases
Many of us take on the care and support of family members, and we are not employed for extended periods. Among employed women, 50% work part-time, significantly reducing their state pension entitlement. Those who haven't prepared wisely until then become dependent on partners or state subsidies.
Us women often rely on others for financial matters, leading to an increase in dependency
Whether it's the hope that the state pension will be sufficient or that the partner has provided financially, the risk of old-age poverty is underestimated by us women. Due to the fragile pension system and the gender pension gap, women are significantly at risk of experiencing substantial pension gaps. That's precisely why it's crucial to start, even if initially with small amounts, as early as possible.
In the long run, exposure to equities always paid off
A single dollar invested in the stock market in 1801 would today be worth millions. This is due to compound interest, the 9th world wonder according to Albert Einstein. What we cannot do is go back in time, but we can get started today.
Planning for retirement
Melanie will work for many more years before she retires. Due to her long-term time horizon and the fact that froots actively manages her money, she benefits from opportunities in the capital market and can remain relaxed even during short-term fluctuations.
Financial freedom
Stefanie has sacrificed financially for her family her entire life. Now, she's finally thinking about herself and choosing a savings plan with froots to become financially independent.
Financing Retirement & Home Purchase
Clara is already investing to provide for her retirement. However, since she also wants to finance a home soon, she chooses a more conservative strategy for her second goal to avoid unnecessary risks.
Preparation for retirement
Brigitte has been investing with froots for her retirement, which is just two years away. Since froots actively manages her portfolio over the term, her risk is continuously reduced. Through the conservative approach, she protects herself from inflation and sleepless nights.
