Risk Profiling
At Value, we believe that successful investing starts with understanding yourself. Risk profiling is a comprehensive assessment process designed to match your investment preferences, financial situation, and behavioral tendencies with the most suitable investment strategies on our platform
Why Risk Profiling Matters
Traditional investment questionnaires often provide generic results that don't capture the full picture of who you are as an investor. Value takes a different approach by combining three critical dimensions:
Financial Analysis – Understanding your investment goals, time horizon, and capacity to handle market volatility
Behavioral Assessment – Identifying how emotions and cognitive patterns influence your decision-making during market fluctuations
Personalized Matching – Connecting your unique profile with investment products that align with your needs and comfort level
This process ensures that recommended strategies on the platform are tailored specifically to you, reducing the risk of mismatched investments and improving your long-term investment experience
How It Works
Risk profiling at Value is conducted through an interactive conversation with Wault, your investment consultant. The process takes approximately 15-20 minutes and consists of two main parts:
Part 1: Investment Profile Assessment
During this phase, Wault will ask you about:
Your primary investment objectives and what you hope to achieve
The timeframe for your investments and when you might need access to funds
Your current financial situation and capacity to handle potential losses
Your experience with different asset classes, from stocks and bonds to digital assets
How you typically respond to market volatility and portfolio drawdowns
Part 2: Behavioral Finance Evaluation
The second phase explores the psychological aspects of investing:
How you make decisions under uncertainty
Your emotional responses to gains and losses
Patterns in how you process financial information
Tendencies that might influence your investment discipline
What Happens After Completion
Once you finish the risk profiling interview with Wault, your responses are analyzed using methodologies aligned with global investment standards. The system evaluates:
Risk Tolerance – Your psychological comfort with investment uncertainty
Risk Capacity – Your financial ability to absorb potential losses
Risk Need – The level of returns required to achieve your goals
These three dimensions are synthesized into a comprehensive investor profile that categorizes you into one of several risk categories: conservative, moderate, balanced, growth-oriented, or aggressive
Using Your Risk Profile
Your risk profile serves as the foundation for your investment journey :
Smart Product Recommendations – The platform highlights investment products that match your risk category and objectives
Personalized Portfolio Construction – When you select multiple products, the system suggests allocation strategies aligned with your profile
Ongoing Alignment Checks – As you interact with the platform, Value ensures your choices remain consistent with your stated preferences and risk tolerance
Your risk profile is not permanent. As your financial situation, goals, or market experience evolve, you can update your profile at any time through your investor account settings
