Women’s Purchasing Power
How Do Women Wield Their Purchasing Power?
More women are taking the reins with their own finances, holding 60 percent of the country’s personal wealth, and 51 percent of all U.S stocks. In addition, the number of wealthy women in the U.S. is growing twice as fast as the number of wealthy men, according to Virginia Tech.
At home, the majority of women act as “chief purchasing officer,” influencing or managing 85 percent of all consumer purchases. And that’s not just diapers and detergent. Women buy more cars, insurance and consumer electronics than men as well.
