Women are putting around double the proportion of their earnings away in savings compared with men, research has revealed.
Female savers typically have 40% of their gross annual average income, or £8,015, in savings, while men have £7,538 or just over a fifth (22%) of their average yearly wage put aside, according to the study of Halifax savings accounts across England and Wales.
