Confronting stereotypes to empower an overlooked segment of the financial population
In an effort to better understand the changing social norms around money in today’s world, we conducted a national survey to learn about Millennial women’s attitudes and behaviors regarding money in today’s world, spanning the subjects of family, work, friendship, relationships, and self. Knowing that talking about money is taboo for many, we needed to tap into underlying stereotypes and compare responses across generational cohorts to uncover these insights. We used projective techniques and a number of tools from our Pragmatic Brain Science Institute®, including linguistic coding and the BASE Framework, to connect with consumers’ fundamental needs and identify underlying perceptions that may drive behavior and decision-making.
