COLUMBUS, Ohio, March 6, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- As ongoing market volatility and uncertainty over the direction of inflation continues, women investors are more fearful of a recession today than they were in 2022, according to Nationwide's eighth annual Advisor Authority survey, powered by the Nationwide Retirement Institute. Over 40% of women believe the U.S. is currently in a financial crisis, with another 24% believing that we are approaching one. Although a recession may seem likely, expectations regarding its severity vary: slightly more women than men expect a short, shallow recession that begins and eases up gradually, with men nearly 10% more likely to expect a prolonged, severe downturn followed by stagflation and instability (36% vs. 27%).

Key Points: 
  • Over 40% of women believe the U.S. is currently in a financial crisis, with another 24% believing that we are approaching one.
  • "It's important to recognize and consider the unique retirement challenges facing women ," said Ann Bair , Senior Vice President of Financial Services Marketing for Nationwide.
  • Amid ongoing uncertainty, non-retired women are adjusting their approaches to saving for retirement to weather a potential financial storm.
  • In addition to changing savings habits, women are uprooting their lives to ease the financial pressures of planning for retirement.
