Estate planning provides women with the tools and strategies they need to secure their financial well-being.
Fun facts: The earliest recorded, well-documented will was written by a woman in Ancient Egypt, demonstrating that women have long played a role in shaping legacies. Women are also more likely than men to create estate plans that prioritize family and charitable giving, ensuring that their legacies benefit future generations. Women are set to inherit the majority (about 70%) of an estimated $124 trillion in global wealth transferring from baby boomers by 2048, according to a report from Cerulli Associates.
March is Women’s History Month, an ideal time for women to secure their legacies and financial independence through proper estate planning. Women’s History Month recognizes the strength, resilience, and leadership women demonstrate across every stage of life.
Regardless of marital or parental status, every woman should have legal protections in place to ensure financial security, protect loved ones, make long-term care decisions, create business succession plans, and safeguard their assets. This month, we reflect on how women can protect themselves, their families, and their legacies — especially during moments of transition.
Women, often the primary caregivers and pivotal in making healthcare decisions for their families, need to ensure that their wishes are respected and executed. Estate planning offers that assurance, providing peace of mind that one’s values and legacy will be honored.
