A significant wealth gap persists between men and women, driven by factors like the gender pay gap, career breaks for caregiving, and lower investment rates among women. Women, on average, earn less, live longer, and are more risk-averse in their investment choices, often preferring cash savings over higher-growth options. To close this gap, experts recommend increased financial education, promoting female role models in investing, and creating investment products tailored to women's priorities, such as long-term security and ethical considerations. Encouraging women to start investing early, even with small amounts, and providing them with greater access to financial advice are crucial steps toward achieving economic equality.
