Types of Investment Risks
All investments contain an element of risk. These include the risks from:
- General market conditions
- Fluctuations in currency exchange rates and interest rates
- Possibility of companies defaulting or going bust
Risk Profiling
The key to successful investing is in understanding and managing these risks appropriately. It is important to consider how much risk you are willing to take, how prepared you are to lose part or all of your capital, and whether you have the ability to make good any losses incurred.
