    Addressing the Financial Headwinds Faced by Gen Z and Millennials | Global Conference 2025

    Cheryl Evans, Kahlil Byrd, Catherine Collinson, Alexis Crow, Dorothy Kelly, Sylvia Kwan

    A diverse panel of financial experts from institutions including Ellevest and the Transamerica Institute examines the distinct economic headwinds facing Gen Z and Millennials, highlighting a severe wealth gap where Baby Boomers control 65% of assets against 13% for younger generations. The discussion details how structural shifts in the economy, rampant student loan defaults, and AI-driven job transformations are eroding intergenerational mobility and forcing many young adults into precarious financial positions due to caregiving duties. Panelists recommend immediate industry interventions such as employer-integrated debt-to-wealth platforms and personalized financial education to mitigate the risk of long-term wealth stagnation as the Great Wealth Transfer progresses.
