Investment strategy based on your risk profile and asset allocation

Investment Planning is core of reaching your Goals

We help you plan your existing and new investments in such a way that you are able to reach your Financial Goals.

1. Evaluate Your Risk Profile

Your risk profile dictates how your portfolio behaves during market swings. It consists of three distinct, overlapping pillars:

  • Risk Capacity : Your objective financial ability to take losses.
  • Risk Tolerance : Your emotional comfort level with market volatility.
  • Risk Required : The return needed to achieve specific goals.

2. Identify Your Risk Category

Investors generally fall into one of four primary risk categories. Review the descriptions below to see which baseline best matches your financial situation and psychology:

Conservative
  • Primary Goal : Capital preservation over growth.
  • Time Horizon : Short term (< than 3 years), medium term (3 to 7 years) and long term (7 years and 15 years) and very long term (15 years and above)
  • Psychology : High anxiety during market drops.
  • Target Returns : Low, stable, inflation-matching yields.
Moderate
  • Primary Goal : Balancing growth with income.
  • Time Horizon : Short term (< than 3 years), medium term (3 to 7 years) and long term (7 years and 15 years) and very long term (15 years and above)
  • Psychology : Willing to accept minor fluctuations.
  • Target Returns : Steady, market-average long-term growth.

Growth

  • Time Horizon : Short term (< than 3 years), medium term (3 to 7 years) and long term (7 years and 15 years) and very long term (15 years and above)
  • Psychology : Unfazed by steep, sudden market crashes.
  • Target Returns : High alpha, accepting high loss risks.

1.Review Standard Asset Allocation Frameworks

Asset allocation distributes your capital across non-correlated asset classes to optimize risk-adjusted returns. Below is a standard baseline table mapping risk profiles to target models:

Risk Profile Equities
(Stocks)
Fixed Income
(Bonds)
Cash
Equivalents
Alternative
Assets
Conservative 10% 75% 10% 5%
Moderate 50% 40% 5% 5%
Growth 70% 20% 5% 5%
Aggressive 90% 0% 5% 5%

2. Execute Your Strategy in 4 Steps

To turn your risk profile into a live portfolio, execute this mechanical sequence:

1. Calculate Time Horizon: Map out exactly when you need the cash.

2. Select Index Funds : Choose low-cost, broad-market index exchange-traded funds (ETFs).

3. Automate Investments : Set up recurring monthly contributions to eliminate emotional timing.

4. Rebalance Bi-Anually : Reset asset weights back to your original target percentages.
