1 Individual Investor Profile Questionnaire R02-AVPB-01/ Version 3

This provides the opportunity to analyze logically the investor s needs, investment objectives and risk tolerance to define an investment strategy and build a portfolio that fully meets that profile. The investor s profile is based on the results obtained from the analysis of all of your answers, rather than just one of them Table of Contents 1.

Investor Profile Description a. Investment goal and risk tolerance. Risk is the name given to the degree of volatility in investment returns.

Indicate your preference by checking (only) one option below. 1. ( ) Liquidity Invest in securities readily convertible into cash. 2. ( ) Capital preservation Preserve the face value of investments during the portfolio s investment horizon. Focus on the stability of investment value even if profits are low. 3.

( ) Portfolio B: Average return, 6%; maximum return, 28%; minimum return, -7%. 3. ( ) Portfolio C: Average return, 8%; maximum return, 34%; minimum return, -21%. My main goal is to generate current income by investing in low-risk assets. I am willing to accept occasional loss of value as long as investments have some growth potential. 4. ( ) Moderate income My main goal is to generate current income. Willing to invest on assets with moderate risk level if that allows me to enhance income and achieve some growth potential for my investment. Investor Profile Questionnaire 4

5 5. ( ) Moderate growth My goal is to achieve long-term growth. Willing to invest on assets with moderate risk level if that gives me better chances for long-term growth. 6. ( ) Aggressive growth 3. ( ) 3 years and above. This horizon allows for long-term investment to enhance anticipated returns. However, it can restrict liquidity. My goal is to achieve long-term capital growth. Willing to invest on high-risk assets if that maximizes my chances for long-term growth. Notes and Comments: b. Investment horizon.

This horizon restricts portfolio investments to typical money-market instruments, easily convertible into cash and exposed to return fluctuation due to short-term speculative swings. 2. ( ) 1-3 years. This horizon allows for reduced return volatility in the short term, an income-asset portfolio, and fewer chances to invest in longer-term assets allowing for increased returns.
