SINGAPORE (6 Mar): The trading floor has historically been a man’s world, filled with a majority of male traders and fund managers. Due to a lack of gender diversity, not many realise investing strategies differ for men and women.
When it comes to personal finance, women are found to be earning less than their male colleagues, according to DBS Bank. And while the retirement age is the same, women, on average, enjoy a longer lifespan than men. Without considering the breaks taken to care for their families, the cumulative difference in savings is already significant.
