Equirus Wealth study flags lack of financial training for women
In short
A study by Equirus Wealth found that 70% of women make the final call on their investment portfolios. It also said none of the respondents got structured financial training, and four in ten took over money duties after a major life event.
The study points to weak financial preparedness in Indian families. It does not say how many people were surveyed or what companies, if any, will act on it.
What the reporting says
A study by Equirus Wealth found that 70% of women have the final say over their investment portfolios, but none of the respondents received structured financial training. The publisher summary also said four in ten women took over financial responsibilities after a major life event, pointing to gaps in preparedness and wealth succession among Indian families. The immediate consequence is a clearer training gap; the study does not say how many people were surveyed.
Why it matters
Equirus Wealth’s study says women control the final decision on investment portfolios in 70% of cases, yet none of the respondents had structured financial training. It also found that four in ten women assumed financial responsibilities after a major life event. The finding suggests a gap in succession planning and investor education, but the sample size and any market response are not stated.
