Improving the standard of living is the top investment goal of Indian investors, shows the finding of DSP MF’s survey ‘Winvestor Pulse 22 Report’. The survey also highlights the difference in attitude between women and men in prioritising goals/dreams.
Notably, women are more desirous of upgrading their lifestyle as 52% of women have put it at the top of their list. 50% men aspire to improve their lifestyle.
This is followed by saving for retirement. The sentiment here is more or less the same amongst both the genders. 48% of women and 49% of men want to save enough for their retired life.
However, the next three goals in the list of top 5 priorities have varying importance.
Providing for children’s education (45%), exploring the world/ travel (41%) and creating enough cover for medical emergencies (40%) are the next three top goals of women investors.
For men investors, creating enough cover for medical emergencies (41%), providing for children’s education (40%) and exploring the world/ travel (38%) are the next three priorities.
The online survey covered over 4,000 men and women in the age group 25-60 across 4 metros (Mumbai, Delhi, Kolkata, Bangalore) and 6 mini-metros (Indore, Kochi, Patna, Chandigarh, Ludhiana and Amritsar). The respondents indicated their top 5 priorities in this survey.
