It’s rude to talk about money, right? Wrong. Money really matters. From knowing your worth to understanding the gender investment gap and how to close it, we’re here to help women have more open conversations about money and investing. Because the truth, is women in the UK have less than half the levels of savings and investments as men*. At AJ Bell we’re passionate about helping people invest – so that statistic really bothers us. Money Matters is our programme to put this right, through a range of educational material to help women get to grips with investing. As well as this website, that includes a regular newsletter, a podcast, and webinars all designed with female investors in mind. So what are you waiting for? Join the conversation today.

Menopause and Money

On this episode of the Money Matters podcast Danni and Laura talk about another life event that can have a huge impact on a woman’s working life. Menopause typically affects women between the ages of 45 and 55 and one in four women surveyed said it had impacted their working life. Confidence takes the biggest knock and 6% of women going through the menopause said they’d had to reduce their hours and 4% said they’d either changed jobs or quit work entirely.
Danni shares her own experiences of working through the menopause and she talks to Sarah Coulson from Halcyon Therapies which has helped hundreds of women deal with their symptoms, about how different women are affected.
With one in ten women saying menopause had a financial impact on their lives, Laura talks to AJ Bell’s head of HR Jo James about how she helped create the company’s menopause policy and talks through what support women can ask of their employers.
