Risk

A risk level 3 investor should be prepared to accept annual returns somewhere within the range of a -6.60% loss and a 17.09% gain — returns within this range would be expected 95% of the time. It should be remembered that there is a 5% chance that risk level 3 portfolios will experience an annual return outside this range — this means an investor may experience losses greater than -6.60% or gains greater than 17.09% at some point(s) during their investment in one year.
