Investment risk calculator
Everyone has a different comfort level when it comes to investing. Knowing your risk tolerance can help you choose investments that align with your goals and financial situation. Our Investment Risk Profiler Calculator helps you assess your attitude to risk so you can make informed decisions about your superannuation investments.
What type of investor are you?
When it comes to investing through super, you have choices. In just a few minutes, our risk profiler may help you work out the type of investor you are, so you can be better guided when making investment decisions.
What is investment risk and why does it matter?
All investments carry some level of risk — this means that your investment returns may differ from your expectations, either positively or negatively. Understanding your risk tolerance is important because it helps you choose an investment strategy that suits your needs, goals, and how comfortable you are with market ups and downs.
Your investment risk profile may change over time depending on factors like your age, financial situation, and how close you are to retirement.
How the investment risk profiler calculator works
By answering a few simple questions about your financial goals, timeframe, and comfort with risk, the calculator will estimate your risk profile - from conservative to high risk
Keep in mind:
- The result is a guide only and does not consider your full financial situation.
- It does not determine your eligibility for any particular investment options.
- Investment risk can impact your returns and super balance at retirement
