What are the factors that determine the risk tolerance level for investors?

[Yohanna]

The level of your risk tolerance is important whenever you are into trade.

The level of risk tolerance must be increased in each and every trade..

 

[Suba]

Investors not only need to know the factors that affect risk tolerance, but also need to know the risk tolerance for yourself, so you can determine which type of investor you are, while the factors that affect risk tolerance are your investment goals, timeline, age etc.

That depends on the amount of money you have for investment. A wealthy man/woman can afford to take a higher risk. Another factor is the personality of the investor. Some people do not like to take risks for peace of mind.

Yesh , When it comes to investments, you need to know that risks are part of it. This is why it is good to find out the risks about any investment before indulging.

The amount of capital you have at hand determines the risk tolerance level.

 

[King Belieal]

I think more often than not, the capital base of a person plays a big role on how much risk they can tolerate per time.

I believe one major factor is also the level of knowledge. Does who have a deeper understanding of what they are doing tends to take more risk.
