Your finances. Your future. Your move. Thursday 20 August 2026

Your financial future rarely demands your attention.

Until one day, it has to.

Between careers, families, relationships, and everything else life asks of us, it's easy to keep putting yourself last.

For six years, the Ninety One Women & Investing seminar has helped women build the confidence to make informed financial moves.

This year, we're inviting you to do one simple thing: put yourself back on the list.

Session 1:
The seat is only the beginning

Getting a seat at the table whether in our careers, homes or financial lives, is hard. Arriving is not the end of it. Self-doubt, imposter syndrome and second-guessing often shape the decisions we make once we are there.

In this candid conversation, Khadeeja Bassier reflects on her own experience of building confidence, finding her voice and learning to trust her judgement, lessons that matter as much in our financial lives as they do in our careers.

Khadeeja Bassier, Chief Operating Officer, Ninety One

Duration: 10 minutes

Session 2:
Know your numbers: the financial checklist every woman should have

Confidence starts with clarity. Before you can make your next move, you need to understand where you stand today.

Do you know where all your assets are? Is your will up to date? Do you know your retirement shortfall?

From retirement readiness and emergency savings to insurance gaps and estate planning, this practical session turns awareness into action.

Martine Damonse, Sales Manager, Ninety One and Elke Brink, Wealth Advisor, R21 Wealth Management PSG
