Risk Tolerance

Risk tolerance is your ability and willingness to accept investment losses.

Explanation

Risk tolerance combines financial capacity and emotional comfort. Choosing an allocation above your tolerance often leads to panic selling during downturns.

Example

If a 15% drawdown causes severe stress, a lower-risk allocation may be more suitable.
