Risk tolerance

Risk tolerance

Risk tolerance is an investor's capacity to accept declines in the value of her investment portfolio. An investor with a low risk tolerance accepts lower returns for the security of knowing that the portfolio won't suffer drastic decreases in value. An investor with a high risk tolerance is willing to take more chances in the hopes of a higher return.
