Women and Investing
Investing for retirement can be a challenge for anyone, but women, in particular, face many unique challenges when it comes to building a proper nest egg. That’s why our practice is designed to address women-specific wealth management and investing issues. We work with a broad array of female investors who all have a unique story.
These include women who are:
- Key decision-makers in their households
- Just getting started in their careers
- Divorced, separated, or widowed
- Married breadwinners
- Married contributors
Regardless of your situation, we will:
- Help you frame your financial situation
- Speak in a language you understand
- Treat you like an equal
- Help you stay focused on what is most important to you
- Journey with you as you work toward financial independence
Did you know?
- 90% of women will be solely responsible for their financial decisions at some point during their lives.1
- Women live longer than men – on average, about six years longer – which means their retirement savings may be challenged to withstand increased longevity.2
- Perhaps exacerbated by increased longevity, women are likely to experience significantly higher health care costs during retirement.
