Our first cohort begins on 3 October 2025. Sessions run weekly on 10 and 17 October, followed by a short half-term break. The final three sessions take place between 7 and 21 November, so you’ll be confident with your own portfolio before Christmas. Already investing? We’ll also explore themes, fresh ideas, and real-world events like the Budget.

You will find other courses online - some will be cheaper than ours, others even free. The difference here is you get access to two seasoned experts who have lived and worked in the investment space for almost 20 years. They will be online live, sharing their insights and experience and tailoring the content for you as you go along. You’ll learn in a live environment with no added burden to go through course material or watch recordings in your spare time. We know women are time poor, stretched and dealing with many mental loads. We want to make investment easy and accessible - that’s why we will be delivering this course live - sharing our time and expertise with you. We want to be part of your journey to financial freedom. We’re also hoping that we can build out the MPower Investor Community over time, creating events for us to get together, share experiences and ideas, long after the course has been completed. You’re not just learning, you’re joining a community of like-minded women!

Maike and Malar, the duo behind MPowered Investor, first met as young journalists 20 years ago at the Investors Chronicle, the oldest investment magazine in the world, well-regarded for its share tips and company analysis and part of the Financial Times group. Here they learnt everything there is to know about stocks, shares, funds and personal finance. From the Investors Chronicle they both went on to jobs working in the City of London, one of the world's leading global financial centres and the commercial heart of the UK. Maike worked as a commentator on money, markets, investments and pensions for the UK’s bigger investment platforms, Fidelity International and Hargreaves Lansdown, while Malar specialised as a stockbroker, spotting deals and emerging companies with potential. She is now a sought after board adviser. Both of them are enthusiastic and experienced personal investors with a very clear mission: to bring more women to the world of investing.

Empowerment means to give power and whether we like it or not money equals power. It gives you the power to leave a toxic relationship, a terrible job, a controlling parent or a bad boss. The only way to grow your money and to create long-term wealth is by investing (unless you  win the lotto). Yet many women still shy away from investing - believing that they don’t know enough or that investing is ’not for me’. As a result many women end up with far less wealth when they reach retirement age - yet we are the ones living longer, taking care of families and stepping in when things go awry. We need to invest, not just for ourselves but for the next generation - because when you can see it, you can be it. And guess what - nothing bad happens when women have more money.

MPowered Investor is for women who are ready to take control of their financial futures — whether you're starting from scratch or want to build on what you already know.
