Women & Wealth offers a range of services and initiatives designed specifically for women. Its purpose is to listen to your needs and offer personalised advice appropriate for each stage of your life as well as that of your family.

What are women's key concerns?

Each new situation in life brings its own set of questions and needs in terms of finance and wealth management. It is usually at life's major milestones (a new job or a change in the family situation, such as marriage, children, divorce, second marriage, retirement, the death of a loved one and inheritance) that personalised support is required.

This can range from structuring accounts or protecting children to building up wealth over the long term. One of the most common questions we deal with is how to prepare for retirement and maintain a certain standard of living. Indeed, women's career paths are more likely to be interrupted at some point due to parental leave or part-time work, and this is combined with the fact that, in many cases, they still earn less than men. They have less savings power but tend to live longer.

Do women have a different approach to money compared to that of men?

Women's needs are more or less the same as those of men, except that women place more emphasis on responsible and ethical investment. Women definitely take a long-term approach to investment, and protecting their children financially is one of their most frequent concerns. They therefore need to talk to someone who understands them, who can put themselves in their situation and whom they can trust.

Women are less interested than men in products per se. They talk more readily about their situation and emotions and don't hesitate to confide information. What they are looking for first and foremost is daily support over the long term. But they also want to be taken seriously, understood and supported in their plans.

How does Banque de Luxembourg support women?

Over the years, our female clients have frequently asked us about family-related issues, savings and wealth management. The Women & Wealth programme is therefore something that they need, but the goal is not to offer specific products. Our response focuses on providing information and sharing knowledge through talks, meetings and discussions with our experts, who can help them better understand what is going to happen and plan accordingly. Then we help them clarify their goals and analyse their wealth situation so that we can guide them towards the most appropriate solutions.
