MUMBAI, July 1, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- The Women Financial Advisers Network (WFAN) is Asia's first fee-only Women Financial Advisers Network. WFAN is on a mission to help women launch and nurture a flourishing fee-only Financial Life Planning and Investment Advice Practice so that they and their clients can lead a 'Rich' and 'Balanced' Life.
A collaboration between Life & Money, an innovative, holistic digital platform with a vision to empower Indians to lead a rich and balanced life and Garrett Planning Network in the USA whose mission is to help make competent, objective financial advice accessible to all people. WFAN is the result of a long term friendship between Sheryl Garrett, recognized as a pioneering Icon in the financial planning and investment advice industry, and Partha Iyengar, Asia's first Financial Life Planner from Money Quotient, Inc. US and co-founder of Life & Money.

WFAN recently launched its website - www.wfan.in and its larger purpose is in alignment with some of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. These include health and well-being for women, narrowing the gender gap at the workplace, reducing inequalities, help women earn a reasonable income, innovation in business, and through partnerships and collaborations create opportunities for more women to become entrepreneurs. By leveraging on the expertise of Life & Money for its holistic financial wellness programs and the Garrett Planning Network that consists of 250 Financial Advisers serving over 25,000 citizens of USA, WFAN believes it is possible to fulfill the UN Sustainable Development Goals by building and nurturing a thriving community of Independent Women Financial Advisers in India.
WFAN has taken the first step towards achieving these goals by forming the WFAN community on SHEROES, a women's social and economic empowerment community platform with 14 million users currently across geographies. WFAN believes that through this partnership it can empower hundreds and thousands of women to take their first step towards financial independence and lead a balanced and meaningful life.
