BaFinsurvey conducted by the UK FCA-regulated broker ayondo and the German regulator BaFin found that 60 percent of UK equity investors look for an opportunity to generate a secondary income or to make money to give them a more flexible work life as their biggest driving force.

The survey also found that 30 percent of participants believe that “having a cool head” is the most important attribute to becoming a successful market investor or trader, followed by good timing (28%) and commitment (13%). This doesn’t come as a surprise for anyone within the trading industry.

35% of men gave the ‘excitement’ factor as their motivator to invest or trade, against only 18% of women. On the other hand, a quarter of women said they were driven by the idea that success in the stock markets feels like money for nothing, whilst only 19% of men were of the same view.
In the year ending May 2018, a third of the 100,000 new traders are millennials and 2 million individuals have put at least one trade during the year in the UK, with a growing number of traders being female, now representing 15% of the market. 87% of the UK’s full-time workforce either have a flexible work life or would like to have so.
