For Retiready Solutions ISA 2 to 5 what does 'too risky' mean?
Updated 04 March 2024
For Retiready Solutions ISA 2 to 5, 'too risky' means too much volatility.
Volatility is a measure of how much an investment goes up and down and it helps investors understand the speed and extent of changes in fund prices so they can compare one to another.
Each Retiready Solution ISA from 2 to 5 aims to ensure that it avoids getting 'too risky' for investors in each risk level in two ways:
- by investing in an appropriate mix of investments to match each risk level and
- by systematically managing risk as an added safeguard. This means it will de-risk (move into safer investments) when volatility goes above a certain level, which is different for each solution
Please remember that the value of an investment can fall as well as rise and isn't guaranteed. You may get back less than you invest.
