Risk Profiling
•
Every person has a unique personal, family and financial
situation. Their decisions depends on this uniqueness.
•
Each investment is coupled with certain risk element and
each person responds to risk differently.
•
The amount of risk a person is willing to take depends
on several factors such as his age, education, income,
number of dependants, personal/ family goals and his
mental attitude towards money.
•
The mental tolerance of a person in his mid-30s with a
working wife and a kid would be much higher than a
person who is retired and has dependant wife and aged
parents. Hence, judging the risk tolerance of a client is
an important step in financial planning.
Risk Profiling
•
Risk tolerance is the risk-taking ability of an individual.
•
‘Risk Profiling’ is a method used for determination of risk
tolerance of an individual.
•
Risk Profiling includes a questionnaire with weights
attached to the answers selected. The sum of weighted
answers shows the risk tolerance of the client.
•
Chief determinants of Risk Profile are –
Age Group – younger the person, higher risk taking
Investment horizon – higher risk for long term plans (LIC)
Purpose of investment – capital growth, regular income etc
Volatility – market fluctuations affect investor behaviour
