How Ellevest is Helping Women Grow Their Wealth with Sylvia Kwan
Venture F: The Podcast
09/20/24 • 26 min
Sylvia Kwan, CFA, CAIA, is the Chief Investment Officer for Ellevest, the experts in building and managing women’s wealth. In this episode we discuss Ellevest and the groundbreaking work they have been doing for over a decade to help thousands of women grow their wealth.
A few key takeaways
🔸 The data shows that women are underinvested compared to men - which is one of the many reason Ellevest focuses on women.
🔸 Women are not set up for success unless they investing - this is what we call the gender investing gap.
🔸 The financial industry was built by men for men by default. There was a study that surveyed a number of asset managers and asked who they built products for and 86% said men.
🔸 Investing is often a means to achieve a specific goal (pay for college, retirement, buy a home etc)
🔸 Ellevest is an RIA - they help women build and manage wealth. They offer financial planning and wealth management in addition to investing. They also have a divorce package and planning for inheritance package.
🔸 What is different about Ellevest’s portfolios is their goals based approach.
🔸 The concept of investing can feel overwhelming and intimidating but Ellevest has built a platform that makes it approachable.

Venture F: The Podcast
10/25/24 • 28 min
Jenny co-founded PEAK6 in 1997 with $1.6M in seed capital as a proprietary options trading firm and since then has grown it into a multibillion-dollar financial services and technology giant housing the next generation of products & service brands including PEAK6 Capital Management, PEAK6 Strategic Capital, Apex Fintech Solutions, PEAK6 InsurTech, and Zogo.
With a true knack for unearthing talent and opportunities, Jenny looks for underfunded and underappreciated sectors to transform into high-growth businesses. Her passion specifically lies in finding opportunities for women to succeed at every table — from the classroom, to the conference room, to the poker room, to the boardroom.
This passion led her to launch Poker Power in 2020 with her daughter Juliette, a woman-led company that teaches poker to all who identify as female, and by extension, teaches women strategic thinking, capital allocation, and decision-making skills.
Additionally, Jenny has created programs to help women advance their careers including the Women’s Trading Experience and Women’s Technology Experience. She currently serves on the Women and Public Policy Program at the Harvard Kennedy School.
Jenny's remarkable success has earned her a number of accolades, including being named to Forbes’ list of America's Richest Self-Made Women, Forbes 50 over 50 and Worth’s Groundbreaking Women. She was also the recipient of the Women’s Poker Association’s Industry Innovation Recognition Award and received a Tony Award for her involvement in Memphis the Musical.
