About Us
The Women In Finance Network was established specifically for women in the financial services industry. WiFN is a forum where women meet, share experiences, support, learn from and mentor each other. We organise regional events with expert speakers where you get to interact with peers, role models and mentors – and of course, experience the enthusiasm and fun of our hive!
We are more than members – we are a community! Join our WiFN Facebook, LinkedIn and Instagram pages to follow posts by experts sharing snippets on a range of relevant, contentious and often inspirational topics, and access our web-community of women who are always ready to assist and support.
The Network is not affiliated to any particular company – just bring along your own wisdom and uniqueness!
Highlights from our recent Cape Town event 📸
A fabulous evening with Helen Nicholson, globally acclaimed speaker and networking expert, who shared her game-changing strategies for building a powerful personal brand.
From mastering meaningful connections to standing out authentically, Helen showed us how to network smart, not loud.
Thank you to everyone who shared this experience with us!

Message from our Founder, Kim Potgieter
When I entered the financial services industry fifteen years ago, it was a traditionally male-dominated industry which motivated me to establish the Women in Finance Network in 2013.
My goal was to establish a Forum where women planners can meet, share experiences, support, mentor and learn from each other, and create opportunities to meet and interact with peers and role models as mentors and guides. Many of our events today are about learning new skills and having fun while we’re at it!
I am convinced that we can change the industry for the better, and increase our value-add to clients in the process. I believe that we as women have the inherent skills to form meaningful and lasting relationships with clients; we have a wonderful gift to stay authentic and a natural empathy and intuitive approach when connecting with the hearts and minds of our clients.
By joining the WiFN, you will receive invitations to our many events and have access to our online community of women who are always ready to help and support. You can look forward to interesting articles and blogs written by our members, and our Facebook, LinkedIn and Instagram pages are always filled with inspiration.
We look forward to welcoming you into our hive!
“I truly believe that we as women can make a difference – we serve and connect with clients in a unique way.”
