Acquiring a formal education has made a huge difference in women’s lives. It’s true that women in India are gaining more economic independence, but only in a tiny fraction of families do they have the freedom to make important financial decisions on their own. Though most women do not make important financial decisions at home, professional women, especially in major cities, set a fantastic example for women everywhere. Women in the city are not only free to make investment decisions for themselves, but also for their families. Women in India now enjoy a higher standard of living thanks to India’s emphasis on educating its young girls. However, the vast majority of women continue to be extremely careless about investing in other forms of financial security.As a result, in order to boost capital creation in the country, it is vital that corporations release numerous awareness programmes addressing alternative investment options. They need to be made aware of the cutting-edge banking options that are available to them. In addition to financial literacy of women, this will boost domestic savings and investment, which in turn will help the country’s economy expand and flourish.
