Extended Risk Assessment Questionnaire

Understanding your comfort with market risk is an essential step in building an investment plan aligned with your goals and temperament. This assessment helps clarify your tolerance for volatility, time horizon, and capacity for risk — forming the foundation for a personalized strategy discussion.

Answer the 12 questions below. Your responses will generate a risk tolerance score on a scale of 0 (ultra-risk averse) to 20 (highly risk tolerant).

1. Time horizon for the funds being assessed
2. Primary financial objective
3. Reaction to a sudden 25% portfolio decline over 6 months
4. Liquidity needs for these funds
5. Required real return to meet objectives (after inflation)
6. Prior experience during market downturns
7. Percentage of portfolio you are comfortable allocating to equities
8. Ability to withstand multi-year underperformance relative to peers
9. Importance of capital preservation vs. growth
10. Reaction to daily/weekly volatility (large swings within markets)
11. Financial capacity (ability to support objectives despite losses)
12. Willingness to accept complexity and illiquidity for potential higher returns
