What is your capacity for risk?

The following questions are not part of the psychometric attitude assessment and have no direct impact on the questionnaire results or selected risk level.

However, the answers will help the investor and adviser identify areas that should also be considered when assessing suitability and choosing a risk level.

Short term (0 – 5 years)

Medium term (5 -10 years)

Long term (10+ years)

No fixed term

How much of this investment could you stand to lose without having a significant impact on your future standard of living? *

None or very limited losses

If you needed sudden access to a lump sum, how likely is it that you would need to encash this investment? *

I have other savings and investments, which I can use for most needs

I may need this investment if I needed access to a significant amount of money quickly
