Nielsen - Women of tomorrow
- 2. When it comes to spending decisions, women are in control!
Women control the majority of purchasing decisions in a household and their influence is growing. Women across the
world are expanding beyond traditional roles to influence decisions in the home, in business and in politics. Marketers have
a massive opportunity to better connect women with the products they buy and the media technologies they use to make
a positive impact both in their lives and in the bottom line.
So what traditional and new media influencers are most successful in driving women’s purchase decisions? Do women in
developed countries think and act differently than women in emerging countries? What concerns do women have now
and what do they expect for future generations? Do traditional roles still exist or do men and women share responsibilities
equally? Importantly, how can marketers not only reach women more effectively, but how can they create messaging that
better speaks to the sentiments and emotions that drive and empower women?
To answer these questions, Nielsen surveyed women across generations and from all corners of both developed and
emerging economies. Reaching out to 21 countries representing 60 percent of the world’s population and 78 percent
of GDP, this study provides insight into how current and future generations of female consumers shop and use media
differently. The findings are both enlightening and surprising. One universal truth prevails: women everywhere believe their
roles are changing and they are changing for the better.

around the world know that one vital way
to a better life is through education. In
developed economies, women’s access
to higher education is considered an
established standard, while in emerging
economies, attending college is often a
luxury for women and the aspiration is
much higher.
The value of that privilege is evidenced
in the study, as 56 percent of women
in emerging countries say they plan
to allocate additional income for their
children’s education versus just 16 percent
of women in developed countries. Women
in Nigeria, India and Malaysia placed
the most importance in saving for their
children’s education —a choice that
ranked in the top three out of 25 different
options for how they plan to allocate their
additional salary in the next five years.
