Women and men have a different perception when the issue is taking risks. According to Schubert (1999), there is a widespread view that women are more risk averse than men. As a result, women are expected to invest more conservatively than men. Some authors also argue that there is a correlation between socioeconomic and demographic characteristics and risk tolerance. Authors assume that the older the person, the less risk tolerant he/her will be. The aim of the study was to identify changes in risk propensity according to a woman s life stage. To this end, a quantitative survey was conducted in which the demographic and socioeconomic profiles of 123 women were analyzed, as well as the Investor Profile and the investment portfolios of each of them. The outcome of this survey indicated that women tend to change their Investor Profile type according to their life stage, often leaving a conservative profile to be able to risk more and consequently get higher returns.
