Women have emerged as formidable leaders, entrepreneurs, and innovators in the evolving global economy. However, in India, their journey towards financial autonomy is still laden with societal and systemic hurdles.

To delve deeper into the investing trends of India's affluent women, we surveyed 105 High-Net-Worth Indian (HNI) women, each commanding a net worth of INR 10 crores or more. Spanning ages 22 to 60, and hailing from diverse professional backgrounds, this survey aimed to uncover their investment behaviors, preferences, and service expectations. The insights revealed indicate the need for a paradigm shift in how wealth management services are designed and delivered to women investors in India.

Here are some key findings -
