They are also investing in a broader and more complex range of asset classes, have greater confidence in their investment strategies, and are more likely to say they find investing fun and empowering than older generations.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe survey of 1,200 American women investors who are primary or joint financial decisionmakers in their households found that the average age that Millennial women started investing is 27, as compared to Gen Xers who started at 31 and Boomers at 36. Almost one-third (31%) of Millennial women investors say they feel very confident in their investing strategy while a quarter each of Gen X women (26%) and Boomer women (26%) say the same.<\/p>\n<p>\nMillennial women have come to investing with different motivations and drivers than previous generations, according to the survey. Less than half (47%) started primarily to save for retirement whereas large majorities of Gen Xers (62%) and Boomers (77%) cite retirement as their primary reason for getting started. Millennial women are more likely than older generations to say they got interested on their own or because they wanted to learn.<\/p>\n<table cellspacing=\"0\" class=\"bwtablemarginb bwblockalignl

discipline, though there is room for them to continue to strengthen those important characteristics, which often comes with time and experience,\u201d said Bidner. \u201cWhat\u2019s interesting, is that younger women investors are more likely than older peers to be focused on building their base of knowledge and thinking through their plan and the options that are out there. It speaks to the heightened level of engagement we see among Millennial women and the importance of investing and financial education and resources \u2013 a big focus for Schwab.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b>A community-driven approach<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nWhile knowledge sharing and tapping their communities to discuss finances is important to women investors across generations, it stands out as a core part of the investing experience for Millennial women, the survey finds. In fact, nearly twice as many Millennial women investors say they participated in an investment club or community when they first started investing than prior generations. Millennial women investors are also the most likely of those surveyed to see financial conversations as a way to build closer relationships. More than a quarter frequently discuss financial information or advice with others and are more likely to do so with their friends than older generations. They are also more likely to go to friends or leverage social media for financial information, research and advice.<\/p>\n<table cellspacing=\"0\" class=\"bwtablemarginb bwblockalignl
