This Attitude to Risk Questionnaire is for your general information and use only, and is not intended to address your particular requirements. It should not be relied upon in its entirety and shall not be deemed to be, or constitute, advice. This questionnaire has been statistically tested and validated for a broad range of UK investors who were engaged in an investment advice meeting conducted by a professional financial adviser. The statistical validity of this questionnaire is dependent on the socio-economic and demographic background of the participants and the manner in which the questionnaire is administered. For this reason the results of the questionnaire should not be regarded as the definitive answer but rather as an informed starting point for a discussion with a professional financial adviser on investment risk in the context of your objectives and the financial significance of the investment being made. The questionnaire is only suitable for use for an investor who is prepared to take a degree of investment risk and is not designed to identify those investors who are not prepared to take any investment risk. No individual or company should act upon such information without receiving appropriate professional financial advice after a thorough examination of their particular situation. We cannot accept responsibility for any loss as a result of acts or omissions taken in respect of the questionnaire. Levels and bases of, and reliefs from, taxation are subject to change and their value depends on the individual circumstances of the investor. The value of your investments can go down as well as up and you may get back less than you invested.
