YouGov Framework: Urban India’s attitudes to investing
Retail investing had been rising in India even before the pandemic hit the world. Covid-19 gave just the push required to send new and young investors all over the world to the financial markets. Therefore, understanding consumer attitudes towards investing has never been more critical.
Using Profiles, YouGov has developed a framework designed to help marketers better understand the portion of the Urban India online population with investable assets and their varying propensity to invest. It highlights the attitudes and behavioural traits of core consumer groups based on the value of the investable assets and the extent to which they look for profitable ways to invest money.
