In the complex world of investing, understanding your own investor profile is crucial. This personalized tool helps you define a strategy that matches your goals, risk tolerance, and sustainability preferences. It’s not designed to evaluate you, but to support you in making informed financial choices.

What Is an Investor Profile?

An investor profile is defined based on the evaluation of your investment goals, financial capacity, investment horizon, risk tolerance, and sustainability preferences.

The investor profile was introduced under the European regulation MiFID II (Markets in Financial Instruments Directive), which aims to protect investors through greater transparency and oversight of investment advisory practices.

Respecting Your Investment Goals

Investing without knowing your profile can lead to risky or unsuitable decisions. The investor profile ensures that investment recommendations are aligned with your situation and needs, reducing the risk of inappropriate choices.

A Personalization Tool

Investment recommendations are tailored to your investor profile. For example, recommendations for a low-risk profile will favor bonds, while a high-risk profile may explore equities or alternative investments.

Your Profile Evolves

Your needs change, and so does your profile. For instance, you may shift from a low to a moderate profile as your projects or financial situation evolve.

A Fully Digital Process

At BGL BNP Paribas, you can define your investor profile directly from your Web Banking by following these steps:

 

  1. From the “Dashboard,” right column, click on “Investor Profile.”
