Former Wall Street Executive Takes Personal Finance Education to the Real Street: Main Street, USA.
Financial literacy advocate and CEO of The Financial411, Teresa Dentino, launches new audio participatory educational program for evaluating 401(k) Mutual Fund Options.
Silicon Valley, CA (PRWEB) August 11, 2004 -- TheFinancial411.com announced today the first in a series of interactive personal finance Tele-Classes, produced and conducted by CEO and Founder Teresa Dentino. The classes will treat relevant investment process topics to promote greater transparency, literacy, and understanding about a variety of financial processes. Designed for the layperson’s understanding, these tutorials take the same metrics industry professionals use and place them in the public’s hands for easy access to learning at a deeper level than what prevailing financial education resources currently offer.
Tutorials will include topics ranging from understanding the mutual fund evaluation process, understanding the various fee structures offered by mutual fund companies, understanding which fee structure offers the greatest efficiency under various parameters, and – further out on the curve than the traditional concerns of the financial services arena - bringing to light critical financial strategies for women contemplating divorce or actively involved in the process, among others.
“The entire mission of theFinancial411 is to promote the awareness of processes that aren’t currently taught by either the investment firms, their salespeople, the mutual fund companies, or as in the case of divorce finance strategy, anywhere for that matter.” says Teresa Dentino. “If you explain to people the ‘nuts-and-bolts’ piece of the process, their chances for succeeding at the next-higher, more sophisticated levels are greatly improved.”
“After serving in the traditional financial services arena in various capacities including the founding of my own full-service firm and active money management, I decided that there was a distinct lack of attention given to this most fundamental level of understanding. I saw first hand, that providing this piece of the puzzle makes people more comfortable with finance in general, and also induces a greater level of participation. A lot of individual 401(k) plan participants I’ve advised were previously just shooting in the dark when it came to making their fund choices.”
Dentino goes on to explain the genesis of these programs: “I launched my firm in response to client requests for more meaningful educational tools, without the hype of investment sales promotion. By removing the money management piece from my services, I’ve intentionally lifted out the potential for conflict of interest and biased education. In this way, I can bring the highest level of service to my clientele.”
The Mutual411 program shows 401(k) participants – or any mutual fund investor - how to find the metrics used by professionals that are critical to evaluating their fund choices and improving their results. Accessible to anyone at no cost, and simple to learn, this data along with other analytical filters will be explained in a one-hour Teleclass taught personally by Teresa Dentino on the following dates and times. Class size is limited to 30 participants. The ability to navigate online while on the call is prerequisite to getting the most value from this program. The cost of the Tele Class is $20.00 plus any long distance charges you may incur through your own telephone carrier.
