MILLENNIAL WOMEN ARE TAKING CHARGE

DIVORCED WOMEN BUILDING THEIR CONFIDENCE

MILLENNIAL WOMEN AND DIVORCED WOMEN SHOW MORE FINANCIAL CONFIDENCE

While it’s true that the majority of women surveyed say they’re lacking certainty around finances, two specific groups say they are feeling more secure and confident in their financial decision-making.

ABOUT THE STUDY

The Women, Money, and Power Study was commissioned by Allianz Life Insurance Company of North America (Allianz) via an online survey in April 2019 with a nationally representative sample of 900 women, ages 25-75, with household income of $30,000/year or higher. Some questions resurveyed from the 2013 and 2016 Allianz Women, Money, and Power Studies.

Millennial women are more likely than other generations to have asked for a promotion or raise at work.

Over half of millennial women say they have more earning power than ever before.

Nearly half say they are comfortable with current market conditions (i.e., volatility), and are ready to invest now.
