2. Risk Tolerance
• Setting Return Objectives needs Risk Parameters
– No pain No gain : No risk No Return
• What Risk to assume??
![Page 22: Basics of Investment](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062301/568141e2550346895dadc20e/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Investing in Shares of Companies
Risks in Investing in Shares of Companies– Specific Risk (companies can be unprofitable and at worst
can go bankrupt)– Sector Risk (share price can also fall along with other
companies within the same sector)– Market Risk (share price of a company can also fall with the
rest of the stocks in the same market)
These risks need return compensation. Sometimes you are well compensated, other times you are not.
Solution : DIVERSIFY, across many stocks, many sectors, many markets.
Simpler solution : BUYING INDEX FUND

Diversification : Combining Assets
Benefits of Correlation between asset classes
Stocks and Bonds rises and falls at different times

a. Time Horizon
• Risk and Return objective usually have different parameters depending upon time horizon of the investment
• Age plays an important role for individuals.
• Example Return Objective of Setting a Retirement plan (at the age of 55)
– A person who is 25 for instance, will have a different set of risk tolerance compared to another who is already 48 years old.

b. Liquidity Requirement
• Again, Risk and Return objective usually have different parameters depending upon Liquidity Requirement from the investment fund
– Example, the need of a regular income as opposed to one lump sum payment
– or the need of a big payment (example a new house) at age of 40. This liquidity requirement has to be incorporated when we set up the portfolio
![Page 30: Basics of Investment](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062301/568141e2550346895dadc20e/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)

Other Considerations
• More Diversification– Alternative Asset Classes
• Other Risks– Currency, Country, Counterparties etc
• Regular Investments versus Lump Sum Investment
![Page 32: Basics of Investment](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062301/568141e2550346895dadc20e/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
More Diversification
Spreading your risk by investing in a variety of assets to protect
your overall investment without sacrificing too much of expected return.
Need to find the optimal diversification mix from a variety of instruments available subject to again your age, asset size, tolerance for risk and investment goals.

Investment Policy Example : Mr Ash Burn
1. Return Objective (Goals) :
Wishes to have monthly income of US$5,000 at the age of 56 - for 24 yearsWishes to travel a lot when retired, US$ requirement not a priority
2. Risk Tolerance
Medium to High Risk (Age is 24 earning US$2,000/mth 5% increment/year)Don’t really mind currency risk – Wish to have multi currency exposure
Subject to ;
a. Time Horizon - 31 years to go before 1st Payment
b. Liquidity Requirement - No real need of liquidity from this
investment fund
c. Laws & Regulations - US law & regulation applies
d. Taxes where applicable - No tax concessions
![Page 36: Basics of Investment](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062301/568141e2550346895dadc20e/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Investment Strategy Example : Mr Ash Burn
Based on the policy set in the previous slide, example recommendation for Mr Ash Burn is as follows;
AllocationExpected Return
Volatility
US Equity Index 20% 9.2% 21.7%
Developed Market Equity Indices (non-US)
30% 6.3% 18.9%
Emerging Market Equity Index Fund 20% 11.1% 27.9%
Private Equity Fund 15% 19.0% 20.0%
Long term Fixed Income Funds 15% 1.2% 6.5%
Total 100% 9.0% 15.0%
![Page 37: Basics of Investment](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062301/568141e2550346895dadc20e/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Investment Requirement
Given 9% Annual Return Expectation, Mr Ash Burn will need to come up with either
– a lump sum investment amount of US$ 40,753,
or
– an annual investment of US$ 3,615 ($301/mth)
20%
30%

US Equity Index
Developed Market Equity Indices (non-US)
Emerging Market Equity Index Fund
Private Equity Fund
Long term Fixed Income Funds
![Page 38: Basics of Investment](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062301/568141e2550346895dadc20e/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Investment Requirement
• If Return Expectation is more moderate 6.5%, need;
– a lump sum investment amount of US$ 103,896,
or
– an annual investment of US$ 7,390 ($616/mth),
Or an even better (less painful alternative)
• $4,885/year (but increasing this payment by 5% per year),
hence monthly installment will be $407 on the 1st year, $427 in
the 2nd year, and so on and so forth. At 52 for instance, he will
be paying $956/mth.
Perhaps this will be an easier option as he is assumed to earn
more as he grows older
![Page 39: Basics of Investment](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062301/568141e2550346895dadc20e/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Policy Review – Mr Ash Burn
1 year later, the investment policy is reviewed
Return expectation may change, or his risk appetite may change, or he suddenly decides he wants to incorporate a mansion when he is 60 and is willing to receive less monthly annuities
All of which will require a different investment strategy and hence different monthly installments
![Page 40: Basics of Investment](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062301/568141e2550346895dadc20e/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)

4 Key Points
1. Set up Investment Policy - Return & Risk goes hand in hand
Avoid “get-rich-quick-and-no-risk” schemes
2. Regular Review of Investment Policy At least once a year Adjust Risk Lower Towards Maturity
3. Regular Investments Avoid the need to time market Entry points are averaged over the long run Painful lump sum investment can be avoided
4. Diversified Portfolio Fund Type Investments generally simpler Avoid the pain of being hit by specific risks
