Wealth management firm GSB has announced a partnership with London-based women networking group Mumble Forum.

The partnership will seek to empower female entrepreneurs and business leaders through financial wellness, alongside providing access to workshops, panels and mentorship that aim to help Mumble Forum’s members to secure their financial futures.

GSB stated that at the heart of the partnership was the Women Financial Wellness Project, which looks to offer a series of workshops designed to equip members of the Mumble Forum with financial skills and resources.

The workshops will cover topics including budgeting, investment strategies, cashflow management, and long-term financial planning.

These sessions will be led by industry professionals, such as GSB, who “understand and support the unique challenges” faced by female entrepreneurs, providing guidance to enable participants to make informed financial decisions that can support the growth of their businesses.

“Empowering women with financial literacy is not just about teaching them to manage money; it's about giving them the tools to shape their futures, make informed decisions, and achieve their dreams,” said GSB founder and chief operating officer, Alison Whatnall.

“That’s why, we at GSB are so incredibly excited to partner with the inspirational women of the Mumble Forum, so we can play a part in their unique journeys.

“As a B Corp organisation, GSB's focus on knowledge sharing and community engagement underscores the importance of social responsibility in business. This collaboration not only enhances the financial capabilities of women but also contributes to a more equitable society - together, the Mumble Forum and GSB can achieve great things.”

Mumble Forum founder and CEO, Monique Hodgson, added: “Financial health is a crucial pillar for any business, yet female-led enterprises often face unique challenges when it comes to financial management and access to resources.

“According to recent studies, women are significantly underrepresented in investment and financial advisory spaces, leading to gaps in knowledge and support. This partnership between Mumble Forum and GSB seeks to address these disparities head-on.

“By joining forces, we aim to create a comprehensive financial wellness project specifically tailored for female entrepreneurs. This initiative is not just about improving individual financial literacy; it’s about fostering a community of informed women who can navigate the complexities of business finance with confidence and expertise.”
