Build a Disciplined Plan Around Your Risk Tolerance: No matter whether you’re a big gambler or a scared chicken, knowing your risk tolerance expressed as a percentage should make it easier for you and/or a financial professional to design an investment program that isn’t likely to push your emotional hot buttons.

 If the inevitable volatility of your investments remains within your emotional limits, you will be miles ahead in the long run simply from having been able to stick with a disciplined strategy.

You and/or a financial advisor can compare your percentage risk tolerance to the historical volatility (annual standard deviation) of different types of investments and design portfolio allocations that will more likely meet your long term investment objectives while staying within your risk limits.

Calibrate a Mechanical Investment Strategy to Your Risk Limits: With the use of computers and mathematically-based investment strategies, it is now possible to calibrate a mechanical investment strategy to your maximum risk tolerance.

This is what we have done at ConfidentStrategies.com. We have Model Portfolio strategies calibrated for a maximum risk tolerance of 5%, 7%, 12% and 30%. Fortunately, you don’t need any financial or mathematical background to take advantage of these sophisticated models as the work is all done for you and presented in the easy-to-understand form of Model Portfolios.

Benefit From Higher Risk-Adjusted Returns: Our Model Portfolios have not only successfully managed volatility risk but increased longer term rates of return. The result has been very attractive “risk-adjusted returns” compared with more traditional investment strategies. “Getting well paid” for the risk you’re taking may seem like an obvious approach, but few other methods of investing allow you as much control over the relationship between risk and return as mechanical strategies such as ours.
