financial decision-making

FKC Newsmaker Interview: Catherine S. McBreen (March 5, 2007)

McBreen PhotoCatherine S. McBreen is managing director of Spectrem Group, a strategic consulting firm specializing in the affluent and retirement markets.

In a new report, "Affluent Household Financial Decision-Making," Spectrem finds that affluent men and women do not see eye-to-eye on just who makes the family's financial decisions.

Spectrem reports that while 56% of affluent men say husbands make these decisions, just 20% of women agree. Meanwhile, the majority of affluent women (61%) say financial decision-making is a joint effort. McBreen discusses these findings in detail during the interview.
