Abstract
Employing financial knowledge, financial attitude, and financial action as the proxy for financial capability, we investigates whether there is any mean-difference by gender and marriage. The estimation results are as follows: first, the married women have the lowest financial knowledge among four groups especially in general financial knowledge. Second, there is the mean-difference between married women and the other groups in investment horizon and self-assessment for investment ability. Third, the fund performance of married women is the lowest compared with the other groups. The findings imply that the financial capability of married women is the lowest among four groups.
