5 Assess Your Risk Appetite Assess Your Risk Appetite Risks versus returs Higher risks do ot automatically traslate ito higher returs. Riskier ivestmets may preset the possibility of superior returs, but higher risks i itself is o guaratee for good performace ad they may i fact result i lower returs ad loss of your iitial ivestmet amout. It is importat to ote that achievig higher ivestmet returs will, i most cases, require you to accept a greater level of risk i your chose portfolio. May paths to success Whe makig your ivestmet decisios, you should ivest at a level ad pace which you are comfortable with. There are may differet ivestmet strategies which you ca choose from to realize your goals.

6 Diversify Your Ivestmets Here are some ways to diversify effectively Buildig a portfolio across a variety of fiacial istrumets, such as cash, securities or derivatives, that provide exposure to a variety of fiacial markets ad asset classes. Diversify Your Ivestmets You should icorporate a variety of fiacial istrumets i your portfolio whe makig your ivestmet decisios. This way, the uderperformace of ay sigle ivestmet may be offset by gais made o other holdigs. However, you should ote that this iteded offset of losses i particular ivestmets i gais from other ivestmets may ot always be achieved. Types of Fiacial Markets: Capital Market, which icludes the bod market ad stock market Moey Market, which facilitates short term debt fiacig ad capital Derivatives Market, which provides istrumets to help cotrol fiacial risk Foreig Exchage Market Isurace Market Commodity Market Examples of Asset Classes ad their istrumets: Log Term Debt: Bods, Loas Short Term Debt: Treasury Bills ( T-Bills), Time Deposits Equity: Stock, Shares Foreig Exchage: Spot Foreig Exchage : Gold, Rubber, Crude Oil, Natural Gas, Coffee, Soy Beas 8 9
7 Diversify Your Ivestmets Diversify Your Ivestmets Choosig ivestmets with differet risk levels, as some of these risks may offset each other, ad may help stabilise (or may at least limit losses to) your portfolio performace. Example: Stocks versus Bods Stock prices ted to be volatile, ad divided payouts are cotiget o the compay s performace ad overall market coditios. I cotrast, bod prices are geerally more stable, ad bodholders receive regular iterest paymets. Icludig both stocks ad bods i your portfolio will create a more balaced allocatio ad better riskadjusted retur. Icludig ivestmets i differet idustries i your portfolio. Spreadig your ivestmets across urelated idustries may miimize the impact of idustry-specific risks o your portfolio. It is also useful to bear i mid the followig whe tryig to diversify your portfolio It ca be very costly ad challegig for a idividual ivestor to costruct a properly diversified portfolio o his/her ow. For example, whe seekig diversified equity exposure, a ivestor may eed to buy more tha just a few idividual stocks; which requires a large fiacial commitmet ad may result i sizeable trasactio costs. It is possible to make the mistake of beig overly diversified. While you may be tempted to buy differet stocks, mutual fuds ad/or other istrumets, it ca be overwhelmig to maage ad track the performace of such a large umber of ivestmets. You should therefore cosider more efficiet optios for ivestmet diversificatio. For example, a sigle ivestmet i a idex fud ca give you istat access to a well-diversified basket of idex stocks

Itermediate-Term Bods represeted by the Barclays Capital Aggregate Idex, which is composed of securities from the Barclays Capital Govermet/Credit Bod Idex, Mortgage-Backed Securities Idex, ad Asset-Backed Securities Idex. It is represetative of the domestic, ivestmet-grade, fixed-rate, taxable bod market.

Stocks represeted by the Russell 2000 Value Idex, which measures the performace of those Russell 2000 compaies with lower price-to-book ratios ad lower forecasted growth values. Determie Your Timig There are two ways i which time ca affect your ivestmet returs: 1Time Horizo A ivestmet may fluctuate i the short term, but such volatility may be smoothed out if you hold the ivestmet over a loger time period. A well-maaged portfolio teds to show higher gais over the log term versus the short term. However, eve a well maaged portfolio caot guaratee gais i ay time period
10 Determie Your Timig Determie Your Timig Time i the Market 2 Missig the market s best performig days ca have a big impact o your returs: Example of $10,000 ivested i the S&P 500 over a 30-year period from Jauary 1, 1979 to December 31, All tradig days $93,980 Missig 5 best tradig days $61,211 Buyig low ad sellig high may soud like a good ivestig rule-of-thumb, but if you try to time the market (grabbig the lowest ad highest poits i the market to buy ad sell, respectively) it may lead to risky ivestmet behaviour ad may result i lower tha expected gais or losses to the pricipal amout ivested. It is ot so simple to time the market by buyig low ad sellig high. If you try this, you may ed up doig the opposite (that is, buyig high ad sellig low). Rather, if your ivestmet decisio is to simply buy ad hold o to a ivestmet over a loger time period, you may have the opportuity to receive better ivestmet returs by participatig i the market s best performig cycles (i additio to its worst performig cycles). Missig 10 best tradig days Missig 25 best tradig days Missig 50 best tradig days $9,321 $23,526 0 $20,000 $46,519 $40,000 $60,000 $80,000 $100,000 Please ote that this is a example oly ad ay potetial returs set out herei are ot idicative of actual returs that may be achieved i ay ivestmets that you may decide to make. Missig the 50 best days i the past 30 years would reduce your returs by 90% or close to $85,
11 Use Averagig to Your Advatage Ivestig oe lump sum versus averagig over time Use Averagig to Your Advatage Dollar Cost Averagig Whe makig your ivestmet decisios, you may be able to save ad accumulate your wealth cosistetly by utilizig the cocept of dollar cost averagig committig to buy a fixed sum of a particular ivestmet o a regular schedule. Whe prices go up, fewer uits will be bought, ad whe prices go dow, more uits will be purchased. The cost of each uit acquired ca the be averaged out over time. I this way, you may be able to build up a desired ivestmet positio by makig a gradual ad disciplied etry ito the market, avoidig the eed to commit the etire capital upfrot, or risk ivestig a large sum at a uexpectedly disadvatageous time. Moth Amout Oe Lump Sum Uit Price Number of Uits 1 $ 20,000 $ , Total $20,000 $ ,000 Moth Amout Averagig Over Time Uit Price Number of Uits 1 $ 5,000 $2.00 2,500 2 $ 5,000 $1.80 2,777 3 $ 5,000 $1.90 2,631 4 $ 5,000 $2.10 2,380 Total $20,000 $ ,288 Dollar cost averagig may be a good way to save ad accumulate your wealth o a disciplied ad regular basis. It may allow you to ride out market volatility ad avoid tryig to time the market
12 Start Ivestig Early ad Reivest Your Gais Start Ivestig Early ad Reivest Your Gais The power of compoudig You may potetially maximize your returs by cosistetly re-ivestig ay gais you receive back ito your ivestmet whe makig your ivestmet decisios. This way, you are cotiuously puttig a larger amout of capital to work, ad your ivestmet retur will be compouded ad may be maximized over time. Utilized properly, compoudig may help you grow a small sum of moey ito a substatial amout over a loger time horizo. Example The power of compoudig is illustrated by the example below, based o a rate of retur of 10% per aum. I both examples, Joh ad Paul, both the same age, each ivest $1,000 per aum, but Joh starts ivestig at age 20 ad for just 10 years, while Paul starts 10 years later at age 30, ad ivests for 20 years. Whe they are both 49, Joh will have sigificatly more moey at tha Paul*
13 Start Ivestig Early ad Reivest Your Gais Start Ivestig Early ad Reivest Your Gais The power of compoudig (Joh versus Paul) Year-Ed Value $120,000 $100,000 Joh s Year-Ed Value Joh s Total Ivestmet = $10,000 ($1,000 per year) Joh s Ivestmet value at age 49 = $117,941 $80,000 Paul s Year-Ed Value Paul s Total Ivestmet = $20,000 ($1,000 per year) $60,000 Paul s Ivestmet value at age 49 = $63,002 $40,000 $20, Age * Please ote that this is a example oly ad ay potetial returs set out herei are ot idicative of actual returs that may be achieved i ay ivestmets that you may decide to make
14 Regularly Review ad Rebalace Your Portfolio Regularly Review ad Rebalace Your Portfolio Keepig i good shape As part of your process i makig your ivestmet decisios, you should keep i mid the evaluatio ad fie-tuig of your ivestmet portfolio at regularly scheduled reviews. This evaluatio ad fie-tuig may help to esure your portfolio cotiues to be aliged with your desired risk-retur profile, ad that it is wellpositioed to achieve your target performace. At each review, ask yourself if your persoal ad fiacial situatios have chaged, ad whether the ivestmet performace of your portfolio has affected your goals. Whe moitorig your ivestmet performace, resist makig impulse drive chages i respose to short-term market fluctuatios (ad icur trasactio costs i the process). Istead, keep i mid the ivestmet goal ad time horizo you have set for yourself, before decidig if there is a real eed to rebalace ad re-adjust your portfolio ivestmets.
