Today’s women are outpacing men in several areas and have high offices including that of the president, Prime Minister, Chief Ministers and Governors of the states. There are 42.8% women who earn equal to or more than their husbands. Surprisingly investing is one such area which still proves gender gap between men and women. Because, still there are women outside with low confidence and believe they have less knowledge about finance than men when it comes to investing.
