Terms & Conditions of using Fondsstad Investor Questionnaire
This questionnaire is designed to help you decide how to allocate your assets among different asset classes (stocks, bonds, and short-term reserves). You are under no obligation to accept the suggested allocations provided by this questionnaire.
The suggestions provided are based on generally accepted investment principles. There is no guarantee, however, that any particular asset allocation or mix of funds will meet your investment objectives or provide you with a given level of retirement income. All investing is subject to risk, and fluctuations in the financial markets and other factors may cause the value of your plan account to decline. Investments in bond funds are subject to interest rate, credit, and inflation risk.
You should carefully consider all of your options before investing.
This investment-planning tool is provided to you at no charge by Fondsstad. Please note the questionnaire does not provide comprehensive investment or financial advice. In applying the suggestions to your particular situation, you should consider your other assets and investments. As your financial circumstances or goals change, it may be helpful to complete the Investor Questionnaire again to see if your suggested asset allocation has changed. By using this investment-planning tool, you acknowledge that you have read and understood the information above and that you agree to these terms and conditions.
