Confidential Financial Questionnaire Portfolio Management

Before establishing your investment portfolio, we need to collect sufficient information to enable us to: Understand your investment objectives and financial situation. Ensure that you are able financially to bear the investment risks associated with your portfolio. Ensure that you have the necessary experience and knowledge in order to understand the risks involved in investing in the portfolio. We appreciate that completing this form can be time consuming. However, we believe that this is the best way to ensure that we take full account of your circumstances and provide a suitable solution. Our service will be restricted to establishing a mandate and investing your portfolio in line with that mandate. As our portfolios are managed on a discretionary basis these are suitable for investors that are happy not to be involved in the day to day management of their investments. This questionnaire asks for information about your wider financial affairs. However, this is in order to help us meet the above requirements in relation to the portfolio. We will not be providing advice on your wider financial affairs.

Section 6: Attitude to risk

Some individuals are more able to tolerate financial risk than others. Researchers have argued that financial risk tolerance can be broken down into two parts: 1. Ability to take risk (or risk capacity) 2. Willingness to take risk (or risk attitude) An individuals ability to take risk relates to their financial circumstances and their investment goals. Generally speaking, the higher the individuals level of wealth and income, and the longer their investment horizon, the more able they will be to take financial risk and the greater their risk capacity. Risk attitude, on the other hand, has more to do with the individuals psychology than with their financial circumstances. Some individuals will find the prospect of volatility in their investments and the chance of losses distressing to think about. Others will be more relaxed about those issues. You should also consider the term available for investment; if you have a longer term (e.g. pension investment) you might go for the approach that has the higher potential for growth and is therefore more adventurous or if you need the money in the shorter term, you would probably choose a more cautious approach. You should also answer the questions in respect of the portfolio that you are investing. If you have a different attitude in respect of your overall financial wealth, please specify this when completing the questions.

Confidential Financial Questionnaire Portfolio Management

Please tick the description which most closely applies to you.

I am not willing/am unable to take any risk with my capital

This may be appropriate if you have a very short timeframe to invest monies and/or require a specific amount for a known purpose. This category is usually appropriate to those that prefer knowing that their capital is safe rather than seeking high returns. They are not comfortable with the thought of investing in the stock market and would rather keep their money in the bank. This category may also be appropriate to you if you have little or no experience of financial matters and do not wish to take the risk that your investment capital could be eroded. It is important that you understand that it is not possible to remove all risk. Even where funds are deposited in a bank account you will potentially be exposed to inflation rate risk in that the real purchasing power of your money could be reduced if the inflation rate exceeds the interest rate which you are receiving. You understand you may lose some of your money below this line

I am very conservative with my money

This category is usually appropriate to those that do not like to take risk with their investments. They would prefer to keep their money in the bank, but would be willing to invest a small amount in other types of investments if they were likely to be better for the longer-term. Very conservative investors may have low levels of knowledge about financial matters or may have limited interest in keeping up to date with financial issues. They may have some limited experience of investment products, but will be more familiar with bank and building society accounts than other types of investments. If you are a very conservative investor it is likely that, when investing your money, you look for the security that your investments will not be volatile which means the value will not go up and down a lot. Some common traits of very conservative investors are that: You expect the majority of your investment to be invested in low risk asset classes such as cash and government bonds. You are comfortable with up to 30% of your investment being invested in shares, and some of which may be outside the UK. You accept that it is possible you may lose some of what you invested for the prospect of better growth. You will probably want to spread your money across different types of investments, which should help to reduce the risk by balancing out one type of risk against another.

I am a cautious investor
This category is usually appropriate for those that are uncomfortable taking risk with their investments, but would be willing to do so to a limited extent in order to target higher returns than can be achieved in cash accounts. They realise that riskier investments are likely to be better for longer-term returns but do not wish to expose the majority of their assets to such risk. Cautious investors may have low to moderate levels of knowledge about financial matters and quite limited interest in keeping up to date with financial issues. They may have some experience of investment products, but will be more familiar with bank and building society accounts than other types of investments. Some common traits of moderately cautious investors are that: You accept that the value of your investment is not guaranteed and might go down as well as up. You are comfortable with typically 40%, but no more than 60%, of your investment being held in shares, some of which may be outside the UK. You accept that it is possible you may lose some of what you invested for the prospect of better growth. You will probably want to spread your money across different types of investments, which should help to reduce the risk by balancing out one type of risk against another.

Confidential Financial Questionnaire Portfolio Management

You understand you may lose a moderate to significant amount of your money below this line

I am a moderately balanced investor

This category is usually appropriate to those that understand the consequences of taking investment risk in order to be able to meet their long-term goals. They are likely to be willing to take risk with at least part of their available assets. It is likely that moderately balanced investors will have some/moderate levels of knowledge about financial matters and will pay some attention to keeping up to date with financial matters. They may have some experience of investment, including investing in products containing risky assets such as equities and bonds. Moderately balanced investors will usually be prepared to give up a certain outcome for a risk of loss, provided that the potential rewards are high enough. Some common traits of balanced investors are that: You are happy to put the majority, but no more than 75%, of your money in shares or other longer-term investment types. You accept that there is a risk of losing your money, but this is balanced with the prospect of greater growth. You might have an interest in and knowledge of the stock market. You understand the general risks involved with investing.

I am a balanced investor
This category is usually appropriate to those willing to take on investment risk and understand the potential benefits of doing this in terms of generating long-term return. They are willing to take risk with a substantial proportion of their available assets. Typically balanced investors have moderate to high levels of financial knowledge and will usually keep up to date on financial issues. They will usually be fairly experienced investors, who have used a range of investment products in the past. Some common traits of balanced investors are that: You will usually take investment risks where you see the potential rewards as being attractive. You are happy to put typically 60%, but no more than 85%, of your money in shares or other longer-term investment types. You will usually be able to make up your mind on financial matters quite quickly. You can suffer from regret when your decisions turn out badly but you are usually able to accept that occasional poor outcomes are a necessary part of long-term investment.

I am an adventurous investor
This category is usually appropriate to those that are happy to take on investment risk and understand that this is crucial in terms of generating long-term return. They are willing to take risk with most of their available assets. Typically adventurous investors have high levels of financial knowledge and keep up to date on financial issues. They will usually be experienced investors, who have used a range on investment products in the past, and who may take an active approach to managing their investments. If you are prepared to take high risk, it is likely that you are an experienced and knowledgeable investor, whose primary aim is to achieve the highest possible returns on your money, while accepting that this means taking substantial risks. Some common traits of adventurous investors are that: You are happy to put up to 100% of your investment into shares or other longer-term investment types. You are looking for high returns on your money and you are willing to take substantial levels of risk to achieve it. You accept that there is a real risk of losing your money but this is balanced with the prospect of greater growth. You are attracted to new markets with substantial risk or enjoy trying new types of investment. You accept that the value of your investment can fluctuate rapidly and by a large amount. You are experienced in investing in the stock market and probably already manage a range of your own investments. You understand the risks posed to your money when investing, particularly that your investment is very likely to regularly go up and down in value.

Confidential Financial Questionnaire Portfolio Management

I am a very adventurous investor

This category is only appropriate to those that have very high levels of financial knowledge and a keen interest in financial matters and that are willing to take a risk of losing all their available assets. They have substantial amounts of investment experience and will typically have been active in managing their investment arrangements. In general, very adventurous investors are looking for the highest possible return on their capital and are willing to take considerable amounts of risk to achieve this. They are usually willing to take risk with all of their available assets. Very adventurous investors can easily be persuaded to take a gamble rather than a certain outcome and enjoy gambling as an activity. They have firm views on investment and will make up their minds on financial matters quickly. They do not suffer from regret to any great extent and can accept occasional poor outcomes without much difficulty.
