Abstract:
When the nation is facing a great downfall of economic activities leading to many disturbances in the daily life of people, savings and investment plan can hold the hands of employees belonging to private sector from financial fall down. The present study exposes the savings and investment preferences of private sector employees due to the effect of COVID-19 pandemic. As information shows that salary reduction and job termination have become common events in private sector due to the present pandemic, it becomes necessary to understand how far the pandemic has influenced their savings and investment. Likert scale and Garret ranking are two statistical tools used in the study to analyse major influencing factors of COVID-19 pandemic and the mostly preferred factor by the private sector employees. The study concludes that this pandemic has a significant influence leading to deregulating existing plans as well as decline in proportion of savings and investments.
