Women have made remarkable strides over time to gain social and professional positions and have become the most influential consumers. However, they still experience many demands on their time and money. They are constantly juggling priorities at home and work, while maintaining social lives. To date, women have received little attention to combating their personal financial challenges through life and into retirement.
The For Women self-study module discusses women's overall financial status and life cycle and explores the proper approach to budgeting to reduce debt and stimulate saving and investing. This module is designed to encourage women to use financial literacy as a tool to manage their financial resources effectively, thus reaching financial security and freedom.
