Abstract

The investment patterns of working women in Uttar Pradesh are shaped by a complex interplay of demographic, socioeconomic, and sectoral factors. A comprehensive analysis of data from 250 respondents highlights significant diversity in age groups, with the majority falling within the 20-40 and 40-60 age ranges, reflecting a spectrum of investment priorities from short-term to long-term financial planning. Marital status emerges as a key determinant, with married women showing a preference for conservative investment strategies, likely influenced by family responsibilities and long-term security considerations.


Employment sector plays a critical role in shaping investment behavior. For instance, women employed in the Information Technology sector are more inclined towards tech-driven investment platforms, while those in Healthcare exhibit a preference for stable, low-risk portfolios. Geographic diversity, spanning major cities across Uttar Pradesh, reveals differences in risk tolerance and financial literacy, underscoring the need for region-specific financial education and investment support. Income levels also influence investment strategies, with high-income earners showing greater capacity for diverse investments, while lower-income groups lean towards conservative options.


Statistical analyses identify correlations among investment choices, reinforcing the importance of predictive models in explaining investment behaviors. These insights provide valuable information for policymakers, financial advisors, and working women themselves, promoting informed decision-making and the development of tailored investment strategies that align with their financial goals. This research ultimately aims to support the pursuit of financial independence and security for working women across diverse socioeconomic contexts.
