Mothers are Women, Too!

Changing Women’s Role in Society

Women manage multiple roles and being a mother is just the tip of the iceberg. Financial provider, spouse, teacher, chef, counselor…are all the other roles she manages in parallel.

These changing roles have been driven by more women joining the workforce, doubled in the last 30 years, primarily with the entry of mothers. Higher education is the other driver, data from Malaysia indicates today there are 138 women to 100 men studying post graduation in universities.

These changes have also not been possible with the changing role of men in society. WIth more men taking on household duties within dual working households. The average man has increased housework from 1.3 to 2 hours per day over a 20 year period.

This growing influence of women in society is reflected in the fact that today women control USD 31.8 trillion of spending globally. And their influence is felt by economies, including Malaysia.

Women’s Spending Power is On the Rise

Based on Nuren Group’s 2023 research, Malaysians’ Digital Habits & Trends, women were found to be the bigger spenders compared to men, with 90% going on online sprees at least once a week.

And these aren’t just limited to small, everyday purchases for the self and loved ones, but also lifetime investments.

Another survey by Nuren Group, Finance Trends in Malaysia Survey Report in 2024, revealed that 67% of women are taking charge when it comes to making financial decisions for themselves as well as their family.

Additionally, Nuren Group’s Property Buyer Behaviour Survey Report in 2022 survey showed that 95% of women actively take part in the property-buying decision within their families.

The data from Nuren Group’s research from Malaysia and Economic Intelligence Unit across Asia show that women are significantly influencing decision making across categories like housing products and furnishings, electronics…beyond just cosmetics, clothes, food and other daily necessities.

Thus, women make decisions not only for categories which they use for themselves but also those that impact the entire family.

Marketers that engage with women are in a position to impact a much bigger family budget.
