March 8th is celebrated worldwide as International Women's Day.
We present a study showing the growing importance of females in the investment world.
In recent
years, the world of finance has witnessed a significant shift in gender
dynamics, with an increasing number of women taking charge of their financial
futures and venturing into the realm of investing, choosing gold, EUR/USD, Tesla and indices ETFs as the most popular trading instruments.
Despite
long-standing stereotypes and barriers, data from XTB gathered to celebrate International
Women's Day (IWD) on 8 March revealed that the proportion of female investors is
steadily rising around the globe.
The Rise of Female
Investors: Breaking Barriers and Challenging Stereotypes
The rise of
female investors is not limited to the single markets. Data from XTB revealed that countries such as Romania and the Middle East have the highest equality in
financial matters, with the percentage of women among new investors exceeding
20 percent.
Dr Anna Grygiel-Tomaszewska
“We are
slowly disenchanting the myth that women are a separate entity on the capital
market, or even something exotic,” said Dr Anna Grygiel-Tomaszewska from the
Warsaw School of Economics.
Although
men still make up the dominant part of retail investors, and in some countries,
women's participation rates are lower, in many markets where XTB operates, a
positive change in trend is visible. Especially among the group of new
investors, where women in 2023 accounted for an average of 12%, and in the MENA
region where every fourth new trader was a woman.
Several
factors have contributed to the growing interest in investing among women.
Katarzyna Sekścińska from the University of Warsaw, attributes this change to a
visible process taking place in women's attitudes and beliefs, both in terms of
their perception of investing and their own opportunities in this field.
Katarzyna Sekścińska
"This
change does not come from nowhere," Sekścińska explained. "Recent
years have brought an explosion of easily accessible sources of investment
knowledge, often not requiring leaving one's home and dedicating long hours of
study."
In 2023,
among the CFD instruments traded by women, stock indices, commodities, and the
major currency pair EUR/USD dominated. In the category of indices, the S&P
500, Nasdaq 100, and DAX 40 took the lead, while in commodities, gold, oil, and
natural gas were the top choices. It showed that trading interests between males
and females are almost the same.
Karolina
Nowicka, a popular Polish financial influencer known as the "Lady of
Saving", has emphasized the impact of social media on the growing popularity
of investing among women, stating that the knowledge provided by female
investors is more accessible and relatable to other women.

“Judging by
how many women have recently started to take care of their money and increase
their awareness of taking care not only of the here and now, but also of their
future, I am sure that the percentage of women as investors will increase year
by year,” Nowicka forecasted.
Shifting
focus to more traditional investment vehicles, ETFs enjoyed considerable
popularity, particularly those allowing investment in entire indexes, including
IShares for the S&P 500 and Nasdaq and global stocks within the MSCI World
Index. In the Slovak market, women primarily selected ETFs, providing exposure
to the American debt securities market. This demonstrates that women, who according to separate research, have a greater aversion to risk, prefer to choose safer investment instruments.
The stock
market is a blend of local powerhouses (such as Poland's Orlen and France's BNP
Paribas) and global tech giants. The most frequently occurring companies in
female investors' portfolios were Tesla, Apple, and GameStop.
Bridging the Gender Gap
through Education
Despite the
progress made in recent years, the gender gap in investing remains significant.
Experts agree that education is the key to bridging this divide. What is more,
data from the Central Statistical Office constantly show large differences in
earnings between the two sexes, even in the same positions. A smaller amount of
capital automatically means a smaller amount of funds available for investing.
Despite this, women deposit more money into their investment accounts, as shown by a recent GOBankingRates survey from November 2023. Every third woman and every second man hold a brokerage account with funds below $15,000. Meanwhile, 35% of female investors accumulate more than $35,000, whereas this figure is 30% among men.
“It is
gratifying that more and more female educators have been appearing recently to
show by their own example how to take care of the financial sphere,” she explained.
“Women speak to women with the same voice and communicate this in such a way
that they understand each other. In turn, understanding seemingly complicated
issues can only positively influence their presence on the financial market.”
By
providing women with the tools and resources to make informed financial
decisions, the gender gap in investing can be narrowed, empowering more women
to take control of their financial futures.
The rise of
female investors is a testament to the breaking down of barriers and the
challenge of stereotypes in the world of finance. As more women recognize the
opportunities presented by investing and take charge of their financial
destinies, the gender gap in this field will continue to narrow.
We wish
this to all women on the occasion of International Women's Day.

The trades that taught me the most aren't the ones that worked. They're the ones that didn't — or the ones I almost caught and didn't have the nerve to ride. In this session, I'll tell you about the Brexit miss, the SNB shocker that nearly handed me a 5400% return, the BoJ surprise that punched me in the gut, and a few wins along the way. Each story carries a lesson, but the lessons aren't the point. Everyone who trades long enough collects a portfolio of moments like these; what separates the people who stay in the game is what they do with them.

Most market post-mortems describe what happened to prices. Few describe what happened in the trading room while the position was open: the entry conviction, the moments that tested it, and the exit decision that closed the book.
This session brings one seasoned trader to the stage for an unfiltered account of the position that still defines how they think about markets.
Attendees will walk away with:
-A first-hand account of how a conviction trade is built, from thesis and entry through position management and exit
-Understanding of what turns a market observation into a live position, and what holds it when conditions shift
-Insight into how timing, execution quality, and market structure shaped the final result
-Perspective on what the trade revealed about edge, risk tolerance, and when to hold through a position moving against you
-Clarity on what separates a well-built trade from a well-timed one

As crypto and CFD trading continue to expand across Africa, access to advanced tools and market insights remains uneven. This session explores how AI and blockchain can bridge that gap by empowering informal traders and underserved communities to participate more effectively in digital financial markets. The discussion will focus on practical applications of technology to improve accessibility, education, and investment outcomes in both formal and informal sectors.
In this discussion, we will explore:
-The role of AI in democratizing access to trading tools, insights, and strategy development
-How crypto and blockchain can enable broader participation beyond traditional financial systems
-Addressing access barriers: infrastructure, education, and affordability in underserved communities
-Opportunities for brokers and platforms to tap into the informal trading economy
