Risk Profile description - Cautious
As a 'Cautious' investor you are prepared to take only a small amount of investment risk and it is important to you that your capital is protected. This means that your portfolio will concentrate on investments that provide low returns in the long term but present low risk to your capital. Only a small amount of riskier assets will usually be included in your portfolio in order to increase the chance of obtaining better long term returns. A typical 'Cautious' investor will be invested mostly in fixed interest and cash with a small element (up to about one third) in equities and property which can boost longer term returns but are associated with more risk. The range of assets provides diversification benefits which also help to reduce the overall risk.
