HYDERABAD, India, January 16, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --

As most of you are aware, a movement is taking shape in India - a movement that will change forever, the lives of millions of Indian women. The women of India are fighting for basic safety and security. As a corporate citizen of India, Investopresto is keen on showing its support for the women of India in this fight for freedom and safety.

With the aim of helping women achieve financial security and independence, Investopresto is now offering free financial planning to women. To make use of these services, all one has to do is to signup via Investopresto's website and fill out their contact details via a simple web form. The entire financial planning exercise will then be handled on the telephone by Investopresto's finance professionals who typically are either CFA charter holders, CFPs or who hold advanced degrees in finance.

The professionals will assess the financial risk appetite and investment needs. They will then suggest specific investments ranging from stocks, mutual funds, fixed deposits and gold funds to help build a diversified investment portfolio suited to meet the person's financial needs. These recommendations are based on extensive research and decades of historic data pertaining to investment returns and risk.

Talking about this, Investopresto's CEO, Ashwini Anand, CFA said, "We did some market research and were surprised to see the number of highly educated and well paid professionals whose financial lives were in total disarray. We felt that we could add a lot of value to these people by sitting down with them and helping them organize their finances and introducing financial discipline to their lives."

Financial planning is as much about educating people about good financial habits as it is about applying quantitative tools to create financial plans. Investopresto's tax planning and financial planning offerings are designed to help people take control of their financial future and achieve their financial goals.

The role of financial security and independence in the lives of women cannot be overemphasized. Financial security can help women feel more confident and independent. A financially independent woman is more likely to have the confidence and courage required to express her opinions, protect her interests, fight for her rights and speak out against harassment or abuse.
