About us
Girls Who Invest (“GWI”) is a non-profit organization founded in April 2015 dedicated to increasing the number of women in portfolio management and executive leadership in the asset management industry. Our benchmark for success is to have 30% of the world’s investable capital managed by women by 2030. This goal is in sharp contrast to 2014, a year in which less than 10% of the world’s investable capital was managed by women. We will focus on education, industry outreach, accessibility and career placement to achieve our mission. At GWI, we aim to create programs to inspire and support young women to become tomorrow’s leaders. By completing GWI’s rigorous program, talented and motivated women will be well prepared to enter the industry across all asset classes including public and private equity, fixed income, credit, hedge funds, real estate, infrastructure, and to be skilled allocators of capital.

"As [I am] an Ecuadorian, Hispanic Heritage Month holds a special place in my heart. It’s a time to reflect on the rich culture and traditions that have shaped my identity and to celebrate the resilience and history of the Hispanic community. It's a reminder of the importance of staying connected to our Hispanic roots." As we seek to amplify voices within our community, thank you Ashley Coque, SIP Class of 2024, for touching on the importance of your Hispanic roots in shaping your identity. At Girls Who Invest, we believe that diverse backgrounds lead to better outcomes, and we’re proud to celebrate #HispanicHeritageMonth.
