Besides gold, Indonesian women invest in land (34.5%), followed by businesses/enterprises (31.1%), property (24.8%), and mutual funds (24.2%).
Generally, women tend to hold lower-risk investments such as gold, land, and property. Higher-risk investments like stocks and cryptocurrency only account for 20% and 10.9%, respectively.
Besides its low risk, women prefer gold investments because it serves as future savings for their families and children, is a non-aggressive investment, and its value remains relatively stable year after year.
