Woman’s Hour talks about money. Over their lives, women earn less and save less than men – and, very often, find they need more of it. Research consistently suggests that women are less likely to talk about personal finances or to seek financial advice, but far more likely to worry about it than men. We look at how we manage our relationship with money and, at what our relationships can do to our cash-flow. And, we ask what part the government, work places and financial intuitions can play in building our financial resilience and reducing gender inequality. From student debt to pensions; buying a home to saving for a pension; the costs of paying for care or doing the caring – and, the gender pay gap - we examine where things go wrong and, how we might begin to fix them.
