Role of Gender in Predicting Determinant of Financial Risk Tolerance

Abstract

This research was conducted to determine whether the determinants of financial risk tolerance varied by gender or whether the same factors influenced the risk-taking capacities of both genders. This study utilised personality types (Type-A and Type-B), financial literacy, and six demographic parameters, including marital status, age, education, income, occupation, and the number of dependents, as independent variables, and gender as a dividing variable. In order to conduct this study, information was gathered from 671 investors. The financial risk tolerance of male investors was determined by six out of eight independent factors (personality type, financial literacy, marital status, income, occupation, and the number of dependents). However, just four factors (personality type, financial literacy, marital status, and income) have a substantial impact on the financial risk tolerance of female investors.
