INVESTING MADE EASY
risk EXPLAINED
Everyone has a UNIQUE attitude to risk.
We offer 10 different portfolios, with different levels of risk and reward – hopefully something for everyone.
Each portfolio fits into one of the risk profiles below. To start out, it’s therefore helpful to decide the level of risk and reward you are looking for with the money you are thinking about investing.
Take a look at each of the profiles explained below to help you figure out which feels right for you.
They are determined independently by a leading financial services company called Dynamic Planner – financial advisers use them too.
From there, you can explore which of our portfolios match up with the level of risk and reward you’re comfortable with.
