THE DATA GAP – MYTHS AND FACTS

28 September 2022

Data and lived experience clearly tell us that we are facing a significant gender investing gap.

When exploring how to remedy this gap, rather than using the data we have to try and understand the challenges we are facing, much of the thinking seems to instead be rooted on perceptions about how women interact with investing. 

This can lead to beliefs such as:

Women aren’t interested in investing. 

Women don’t perform as well as men. 

Women aren’t as confident with investing. 

How many of these have you heard? 

However, are any of these perceptions or more accurately myths true? Or are women just facing unique challenges that require broader thinking that the one size fits all approach to investing that is all too common? 

Take a look at our video exploring the realities of the myths and facts around women investing, and more importantly how the entire investment industry can act to make a lasting change to tackle inequalities.
