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.

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.
