Description

Investors walk a tricky tightrope of risk and performance. Those who choose too little risk may fail to reach their goal. Those who choose too
much may lose their balance, with potentially disastrous results. How
should investors decide what level of risk exposure is suitable for them?
For many advisers, the solution is to ask their clients to indicate how
much risk they can tolerate, and then to design a portfolio that meets
their risk preferences. But individuals are not usually investment experts.
Furthermore, it is extremely hard to elicit a person’s appetite for risk: what
investors say they want is not necessarily what they really want. Investors
may be ill-informed and their behaviour may be less than rational.
