A financial literacy platform led by women for women will host its first event on money management tomorrow
Cash Me If You Can is a zine designed by Kritika Trehan for Miss Manage that details the meaning of things you carry in a wallet
The agenda includes a 20-minute run-through of the basics followed by a discussion on practical information and a QnA with the speakers. Finance experts including Nisreen Mamaji, Gitanjali Mayani, Manisha Pandita, Shipra Baranwal, and author Aparna Jain will be present. "They all come from diverse fields. And the speakers were instantly onboard with the idea because it's a cause that everyone identifies with. It's not going to be like one of those boring 101's on investing. We'll be looking at topics like when to use a credit or debit card or what does one do with their Jet miles now," Kewalramani says.
The event is specially targeted at working women — salaried employees or those who run businesses. "It will appeal to women in their mid-20s to late 30s. It's when we're navigating through negotiating our salaries or promotion. We'll also be discussing salary slips and where one can invest money in order to save tax," she explains, adding that the approach isn't entirely dumbed-down either. "Most of us don't read the fine print and then run into problems. So, Pandita, for instance, who helms the FinTech app EasyPlan, will shed light on budgeting effectively while Baranwal is an expert on reward points," she adds.

Since it often become difficult for participants to retain information after events such as these, MM will also be handing out goodie bags that will include a 20-page magazine with information such as money apps people should download, a zine called Cash Me If You Can created by Calcutta-based designer Kritika Trehan, as well as gift vouchers from the partners. As Kewalramani says, "In the end, it doesn't matter what your background is, but what matters is how you use the
information you have."
On April 24, 5 pm onwards
