"The gender investment gap has widened in the UK, with men making up almost 60% of investors. Women have long been underrepresented in the world of investing."
"Women generally earn less than men, which leaves them with less money to invest in the first place. They do not receive the same financial education in their childhoods."
"It's a simple shift in rhetoric. We need to use language that celebrates women's strengths, like patience and discipline, and create an environment where women feel comfortable."
In mid-2024, the Boring Money report revealed that men comprised nearly 60% of investors in the UK, highlighting a widening gender investment gap. In response, eToro launched the 'Loud Investing' campaign to educate and empower women.

Women face barriers such as lower earnings and financial education disparities, contributing to their underrepresentation in investing. Historical discrimination in finance has also impacted women's access to investment opportunities.
