Achieving suitability is like hammering a nail on its head. Even if you miss, you have to try until you get the job right.

For a financial advisor, creating suitability between client and product is a challenge with which you are confronted and a means by which you prove your mettle.

Learn expectations and requirements for suitability.

  • Plan for the effect of goals and constraints on suitability;

Risk is synonymous with uncertainty. The risk a person is willing to take is a result of his or her psychology, life experiences, social conventions, intelligence, and age amongst other factors. Where does that put you when you must gather information about the risk characteristics of a person and apply them to a product with its own risk profile? It puts you in a position in which information, analysis, and thought is required to arrive at appropriate answers.

This course delivers on risk fundamentals by covering:

  • The role of disclosure to risk;
  • The three measurements in a risk profile: tolerance, capacity, and need;
  • The dilemma of applying risk assessment to decision-making.

If you have client-facing responsibilities for investments or insurance, you will come away from this course with a new appreciation for the depth and breadth of risk management.
