Financial market lectures: imparting knowledge
Studies investigating financial literacy in Germany routinely come to the same conclusion: the deficits are enormous. A representative survey done by Postbank even showed that a quarter of German citizens prefer to avoid discussing financial issues entirely, and almost as many do so reluctantly. In fact, the number of equity investors in Germany (directly or via investment funds) varies between only 13 and 15 percent of the total population. Considering the financial risks for many private households, especially among older people, a lack of financial literacy can be catastrophic.
Stimulating interest in the markets
Improving financial literacy among a wide audience, and getting people interested in the financial markets and investing – this is the motivation that drives Katja Dofel every day. And so, apart from her work in front of the ntv cameras at the Frankfurt Stock Exchange, she also makes appearances as a guest lecturer. For example, she speaks about the financial markets at client and employee events for banks and other financial service providers. In these she explains why the stock and bond markets rise and fall, how price developments can be classified historically, and what opportunities and risks may arise for investors as a result. She can present in German or English, as requested.
And she doesn’t advertise certain financial products or strategies, but only one: capital market investments as an integral component of a diversified private retirement plan.
Known and liked by the public
Present Katja Dofel to your clients and employees as an icon of German stock market reporting.
