INFLUENCE OF FAMILY STATUS ON RISK INVESTMENT DECISIONS

Abstract

The article, based on the data of the China General Social Survey (CGSS) for 2017, provides the results of an analysis of the influence of marital status on the decision to own risky financial assets. The results show that marital status, gender, age, educational level, health status, level of social security, subjective assessments of a person's well-being and his place of residence (in urban or rural areas) influence household decisions about the risky investment of family assets.
