Great, however remember that a questionnaire is just a starting point. Consider speaking with an advisor to have a deeper discussion about your investment goals, comfort with risk and investment return expectations.
Your investor profile based on the questionnaire does not match with how you would describe yourself as an investor. This questionnaire is designed to produce an investor profile that takes the lower of your willingness to accept and your ability to withstand losses while also considering other factors that may limit how much risk you can take such as your investment time horizon. You can try the investor questionnaire again, but remember a questionnaire is always just a starting point, please consider speaking with an advisor to have a deeper discussion about your investment goals, comfort with risk and investment return expectations.
