In the future, the money in the 40s is likely to shift further to investment.

Of those in their 40s, 78% were financial investors who already owned stocks, bonds and funds, and more than half (57%) of them said they plan to increase their financial investment.

Even if they are not financial investors, 61% said that they will start investing if conditions allow, such as when the lack of funds, time, and information is resolved.

Of the financial investors, 44% have expanded their investments in the last 1-2 years, and 15.0% said they started investing for the first time in the last year, and the Donghak Ant Movement is also confirmed in the indicators of this survey.

When asked the reason for expanding financial investment, the most common answers were'as the low interest rate persists' and'because it becomes difficult to make money if you don't invest'.



However, despite recent investment movements, the majority of investors were less willing to accept investment losses. One in two (54.5%) responded that they still want to'preserve the investment capital' or can afford a loss of'less than -5%'. And only 15.8% of aggressive investors were willing to allow'-10% or more' losses.
