Description:

In today’s Stock Market 101 session, we’re going back to investment basics. For this exercise, I speak to qualified Chartered Accountant and founder of This Girl Invests, Prerna Khemlani — a passionate advocate for educating and encouraging women to get financially confident. 


Despite working in the financial industry, Prerna still found the information around personal finance difficult to understand and apply to her life. It was because of this frustration that she decided to launch her Instagram account, This Girl Invests, which now serves as a community for women to learn more and take control of their financial futures. 


Today on The Wallet: 


1/ We’re taking a step back and learning about the foundations of the stock market and investing. Prerna walks us through the basics, including: what exactly is the stock market, and how does it work? What is a stock? What’s the difference between stocks and funds? 


2/ There is always some risk involved with investing, so we discuss how to evaluate said risk and how to know what is comfortable for you, as well as the returns you can expect to see from your investments. 


3/ It can be hard to know where to start with investing, and Prerna offers valuable tips on how you can research companies to get a feel for the market as well as how to build your confidence to get some skin in the game.
