why i created women investors club
After graduating from the top MBA program in 2007 I was prepared to work in an investment bank. I was full of knowledge on capital markets and could calculate a value of a company with a help of the most sophisticated financial models. I also was determined to start investing.
I talked to many banks and financial advisors, I tried different products and services, I even had a taste of private banking from a top Swiss bank. These were disappointing experiences. I end up filling many forms, answering very personal questions, paying many fees, reading confusing reports, but....I did not see my money grow.
It took me 6 years before I got the confidence to start investing by myself.
In 2019 I created Women Investors Club to teach women essential financial knowledge and help them feel comfortable making their own investment decisions.
For the past 5 years I have been helping women find their financial confidence and advocating financial empowerment. I learnt a lot and today I am even more passionate about the topic.
At Women Investors Club you will find personalised support to grow your wealth and improve your financial well-being. You will meet real women and hear real stories.

About me
I am 49, married and have two adorable daughters. I was born in Russia but spent my twenties in the Netherlands and feel more Dutch than Russian. After living 10 years in Spain, I have grown to love this country. I live in Madrid and consider this place my home, at least for now.
In my 20s and 30s I worked for big companies and travelled the world. I have enjoyed my corporate career and success which make me feel proud. I left this employment, however, to give full attention to my kids. I have never regretted that decision.
Today I have a diverse portfolio of activities, which allows me to do what I am passionate about with enough time left for my family.
