How women and the Next Gen lead on money decisions

We interviewed Ozge Dogan, Founder of Karman Beyond to talk about generational wealth, how women and the next gen lead on money and how the world will benefit.

We interviewed Ozge Dogan on The Purse Podcast.

Ozge Dogan is the Founder of Karman Beyond, Türkiye’s first independent multi-family office - democratising wealth management for families.

We talk about the definition of wealth, what is a family office, generational wealth and the dynamics at play, the impact of women and the next gen leading on money decisions, sustainability and more+

Here is a short except from the interview:

Jana: “Yes…because we are seeing more women coming into this leadership role and making financial decisions or certainly engaging far more than than they used to. And there is a difference…when a woman leads a family office versus when she co-leads with a male family member.. versus when men are leading..”

Ozge’s response: (lightly edited for ease of reading)

Absolutely…the investment perspective is changing a lot.

There's more inclusivity and there's more diversification when a woman is leading the financial decisions. And also they tend to be more impactful because her decisions are more aligned to her values.

Women also consider who is going to benefit from these investments, therefore what she invests in is important; the type of companies they are, what they bring back to society.

And I think these are the really important concepts. Men, on the other hand, have historically focused just on the outcome.

Women are more interested in the journey and are more likely to consider the entire process, that is: what they invest in and how they do it.

Basically it is not just about making money or turning a profit. It's also about how are you making these profits and who is this going to benefit along the way?

So I think more women should be involved in financial decision making, in any business, in any family office, anywhere in the world, in any sector…

This really will change everything…

News in Brief

Financial news

* European markets recover as Bank of Japan (BoJ) calms markets. Bank of Japan deputy governor Shinichi Uchida’s speech – saying the BoJ would not hike rates when markets are unstable, has given a proverbial “green light” to carry traders to resume shorting the yen and buying higher-yielding currencies and assets.

* Rebound in tech stocks continues despite disappointing earnings from AirBnB and controversial earnings from Super Micro Computer (highest profile AI component stock after Nvidia). Nasdaq 100 Future +0.7% while ABNB -17% and SMCI -11%.

* US bond vigilantes managed to turn the stock market around. Investors shunned a $42bn auction of benchmark 10 year US securities, which drew a yield that was well above the pre-sale indicative level. That horrible bond auction pushed stocks lower.

* JP Morgan boosts US recession chance to 35% by the end of this year, up from 25% as of the start of last month. JP Morgan economists kept the odds of a recession by the second half of 2025 at 45%. Bank follows Goldman Sachs in raising risk of a downturn.

* Rebound in tech stocks continues despite disappointing earnings from AirBnB and controversial earnings from Super Micro Computer (highest profile AI component stock after Nvidia). Nasdaq 100 Future +0.7% while ABNB -17% and SMCI -11%.

Crypto: bitcoin, ethereum, DeFi

* Ethereum was knocked harder by the early week volatility losing more than 12% over the last 7 days. ETH investors appear to be less loyal to the coin than Bitcoin or Solana, and therefore it’s prone to bigger sell-offs. ETH is currently trading at $2,666.
