An evolving landscape
The landscape of high-net-worth women in Australia is undergoing significant evolution, driven by increased female participation in the workforce, coupled with higher educational attainment and a growing interest in entrepreneurship. Moreover, women are set to inherit AUD$3.2 Trillion, in the largest wealth transfer Australia has seen.
JBWere has partnered with CoreData to research Australia's growing cohort of high-net-worth women. Using both qualitative and quantitative methods, the research shines a light on their increasing influence and wealth management needs. It also highlights the challenges they continue to face.
Women are accumulating their own assets and investments, while also benefiting from intergenerational wealth and Baby Boomer business transfers. Together with higher divorce rates, especially among older generations, high-net-worth women are often required to navigate wealth management, at times without prior experience or existing relationships with professionals.
Many women exhibit strong interest and capability in managing their financial affairs. However, women often face barriers and biases when accessing financial services. At JBWere, we believe it is essential the barriers and biases are addressed to effectively serve this growing cohort.

“I’m looking for somebody who looks at the whole package. […] They have to look at who you are, what you’re doing in life, and where you’re going. And not only obviously me, but how I exist in my marriage and what’s happening in the family.”
