Conservative investor
Conservative investors have a low or no experience with collective investment funds, they prefer stability of their investments, and have high aversion to investment risk. At the same time, however, they are interested in starting with capital market investments to get higher returns than the returns usually available from time deposits and, in medium-term horizon, even short-term money market rates. Portfolios of conservative investors mostly comprise money market funds, completed with bond funds. Equity funds are represented marginally. Due to their risk aversion, investors require lower fluctuations of investments than in case of investments in bond funds.
Cautious investor
Cautious investors have had some exposure to collective investments. Their risk aversion is lower than in case of conservative investors, which is also reflected in the structure of their portfolio. The portfolio comprises, in addition to money market funds and conservative bond funds, also funds with a higher expected return – such as balanced funds with a limited equity component and more dynamic bond funds. The value of the whole investment may therefore fluctuate slightly more than in case of investments in bond funds only. At the same time, however, the investment within the portfolio provides an opportunity for achieving higher returns than those, which are usually available for bond funds.
Balanced investor
The familiarity of balanced investors with collective investments is very good. The importance of the equity component is starting to grow for these investors, as it makes up a significant part of the portfolio; however, bond funds are still prevalent within the portfolio due to an increased risk aversion. While the bond and money market components of the portfolio are to decrease the investment amount fluctuations, the equity component provides dynamics to the investments and investors may therefore achieve higher valuations.
Dynamic investor
Dynamic investors have a relatively long experience with collective investments. Their risk aversion is the lowest one from all the listed types of investors. Their portfolios are dominated by equities, at the expense of bond funds and money market funds. The minor bond portion of the portfolio ensures a partial risk reduction in case of an adverse development of prices on stock markets. The structure of their portfolio brings higher investment value fluctuations – that is why the investment horizon should be at least 5 years.
