The Women’s Investment Network (“WIN”) has been established to serve the financial interests of women.
Our aim is to:
Help and inspire women to become financially knowledgeable and independent.
Enable women to successfully identify and achieve their personal financial goals.
Learn the money management skills needed to understand saving & investing.
Many of you will have your own individual personal financial circumstances that you wish to discuss on a one-to-one basis, and preferably with another woman. Perhaps you have been recently divorced, or simply wish to establish financial independence. We are pleased to provide private coaching and ‘financial health check’ sessions to suit your needs.
We understand the importance of growing our networks and socialising together. Regular social events are being planned for 2019 – watch this space!
Annual membership is just AED500. Members will benefit from discounts on WIN Meetings & Events and Private Coaching. WIN also has a growing list of Partners who offer discounts on their products and services to our Members, as well as discounted or complimentary tickets to their events. Members seeking specific professional advice can also benefit from introductions to WIN’s trusted global network of relevant advisers.
Our regular 1-hour Presentations and 2-hour interactive Workshops each offer the opportunity to learn about a wide selection of topics to help you to take control of your finances and make your money work for you. WIN Founder Zoë Cousens will be sharing the knowledge she has gained in her 30+ years in finance, together with guest speakers who are professional women in the legal, trust, property and banking worlds.
Zoë’s career in financial services began in 1986 as one of the first women to work in the London Stock Exchange. With more than 30 years’ experience in financial services working in London, the Channel Islands and the Middle East, Zoë believes in the importance of sharing the knowledge she has gained to promote financial literacy and money management skills, to inspire women to successfully identify and achieve their personal financial goals, with the ultimate aim of financial freedom of choice.
I worked with Zoë on a case involving a comparison of Guernsey international finance centre with a European competitor for a specific query. Zoë responded very quickly, understood well what was required and then produced a very high-quality comparative analysis. Zoë has also assisted in another case, involving investment for an expatriate based in the UAE, where she demonstrated strong knowledge of the issues and made sound recommendations. I would describe Zoë as being a consummate professional, who really does go out of her way to assist wherever she can.
In the dark suit, dominated world of Financial Services and Investment Management Zoë provides a refreshing injection of colour. Zoë brings a great depth and breadth of knowledge and experience covering Investment Management advice to both Private Clients and Family Offices. Zoë takes time to understand her client’s needs and objectives before providing advice and guidance to ensure the best outcome for the client. A pleasure to work with.
Zoë’s genuine approach and her commitment to the wellbeing of her clients, combined with professionalism and strong business ethics, makes her stand out from the crowd when looking for guidance with your financial planning matters. Having the courage to uproot her life and a stable career spanning over 30 years, to launch and grow a successful business in a wholly new environment speaks volumes about Zoë’s determination and makes her a true inspiration to me and other professional women.
Zoë is an inspiration to women in finance everywhere. She is a successful entrepreneur, a financial whizz, and a thoroughly lovely person to deal with professionally. Her achievements, from being one of the first women on the floor of the LSE to making a monumental move from Guernsey to Dubai and starting a business from scratch are awe inspiring, and she continues to blaze a trail through the local financial industry. Mabrouk!
