The Factual Conversation
Women influence 70% of consumer spending decisions in this country1
In the next 10 to 20 years, many boomer women will inherit wealth twice – from their parents and their spouse1
82% of Canadian wealth will eventually be managed by women1
70% of women switch advisors after the death of a spouse1
Average age of a widow is 562
According to one Cornell study, 10 trillion dollars in inheritance will pass to baby boomers between now and 2040 – majority of inheritors will be women2

The Factual ConversationWomen have been raised to be the keepers of the household purse, not the income generators. That legacy lives on for the majority of the population. Budgeting, borrowing and everyday saving is not a primary struggle for women – wise investing is.2
Women want a financial advisement process that accounts for her heart, not her ego. In other words, a process that incorporates her feelings, her perceptions, her life situation and her desires to take care of others.2
Two-thirds of women are single by the time they hit age 65—either because they never married, their spouses pass away, or they divorce.2
Don’t know what you don’t know. Start with what should I know?

Risk (4-Letter Word) /Return Trade-OffThe Efficient Frontier
Asset Class diversification works over the long run
• Bonds negatively correlated with stocks (“Defense”)
• Pure income portfolios have ~2/3 the risk of stocks
• Pure bond investors benefits from small addition of stock exposure given negative correlation
![Page 15: Investment Strategies for Women](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020720/547e810eb4af9f17178b4789/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Asset Class ReturnsJanuary 1, 1950 – June 30, 2011
Despite the financial crisis, long term stock returns continue to lead all asset classes.
• Bonds performed well over the last 61 years. ¾ of the return & only ¼ of the risk vs. Canadian Equities
• Interest Rates peaked in early 1980s
• Inflation rate has been remarkably steady over the postwar period
