Divorces affect thousands of people in Switzerland every year – around 16,000 marriages end in divorce every year in this country. Alongside the emotional and organizational hurdles a separation brings, one aspect is often underestimated: the financial consequences, especially for women. In our new podcast episode “Divorce – a financial trap for women?”, we take a close look at this very topic.
While the average marriage now lasts almost 16 years, separation often causes serious financial issues – especially for mothers. Studies show that single mothers’ annual income falls by around 9,000 francs after divorce. The reasons for this are complex: women usually assume primary responsibility for childcare, making it difficult to return to work, while fathers more often continue to work unaffected. But why does this disparity still exist? And what can women do to provide for themselves financially during their marriage? Find out in an interview with Sara Satir and Bente Roth.
