Risk Factors
All investments carry a certain degree of risk, it’s part of the very nature of investing and you can’t avoid it. However how you can manage the level of risk that you’re exposed to in relation to what you can afford to lose and what your psychological appetite to risk is.
The more risk you take on, the higher the reward may be, but also the bigger losses that you may incur, not to mention sleepless nights if you’re investing outside of your comfort zone.
So not only is it important to consider what you can afford to invest financially, it’s wise to think about what you can afford to invest mentally.
If you’re not sure whether an investment is right for you please seek independent advice.
