A STUDY ON FACTORS THAT INHIBIT WOMEN'S PARTICIPATION IN INVESTMENT: A COMPREHENSIVE STUDY

This study aims to investigate the various factors that hinder women's participation in investment activities. Despite
the increasing trend of women being active in the workforce and occupying key leadership roles, research has shown
that women are still significantly underrepresented in investment markets. The study will conduct a comprehensive
analysis of the reasons that discourage or prevent women from investing, including financial literacy, wage gaps, lack
of access to investment information and resources, social norms, and gender biases. The research will utilize a mixedmethods
approach, combining both quantitative and qualitative methods to gather and analyze data. The study will
also identify potential solutions to encourage and empower more women to participate in investment activities. By
shedding light on the factors inhibiting women's investment participation, this study seeks to inform policymakers,
investment firms, and financial advisors to take actionable steps towards creating a more inclusive and equitable
investment landscape.
