Statistically, Female Australian Investors are More Trustworthy With Money

Here is a thought-provoking piece from Yahoo Finance. It’s called More specific goals, less risk: How women approach investing differently to men.

It cites some interesting studies about women and money. Here’s one of them:

One such study came from the Warwick University Business School in 2018. It examined 2,800 investors and found that women outperformed their male counterparts over the three year period examined. Why? Possibly because women took a longer-term perspective than men, traded less frequently, and were less likely to indulge in a “lottery style” of investing (like speculative stocks), according to the report author Professor Neil Stewart.

It’s a fascinating piece that’s full insights. Read it in full at this link to Yahoo Finance.
