Advocacy & Impact

A recent study by Stephens Invested titled “How Women Can Build Wealth: Rethinking the Role of Networks and Reevaluating Risk” found that women are somewhat more risk adverse than men. Invested also demonstrated that when women build more effective and diverse professional networks, it can help recalibrate their approach to financial risk potentially generating more wealth accumulation.
