Investment Profile Questionnaire

Your investment strategy requires thought and planning. A very important factor to consider prior to investing any money is the length of time your investment will remain in the chosen vehicle. Mutual fund investments typically have a long-term horizon. Many investors diversify their investment dollars across several asset classes in an attempt to spread risk, buffer volatility and diversify the opportunities to achieve returns. Diversification does not assure a profit or protect against loss.

Completing the questionnaire below and discussing the results with your PFS Investments Registered Representative can be a valuable step toward evaluating your continued approach to investing. The total score from your responses is a rough indication of how much risk you prefer in your investments from information you have provided. Keep in mind that this profile is intended to give you a start and doesn't cover all the issues that you should consider.

32‑35	Aggressive Growth	This portfolio is appropriate for investors whose primary objective is maximum long‑term capital appreciation and who are willing to tolerate more substantial, potentially large price fluctuations. Generating current income is not a goal. Assets in this portfolio are invested entirely (or almost entirely) in equities (stocks).
25‑31	Growth	This portfolio is appropriate for investors whose primary objective is long‑term capital appreciation and who are willing to tolerate potentially large price fluctuations. Generating current income is not a primary goal. Assets in this portfolio are invested primarily (and in some cases entirely) in equities (stocks).
18‑24	Moderate Growth	This portfolio is appropriate for investors whose primary objective is capital appreciation and to whom current income is of secondary importance. A moderate growth investor is willing to tolerate short‑term price fluctuations. The assets in this portfolio are a mix of equities (stocks) and fixed‑income securities (bonds), with a higher weighting towards equities (stocks).
11‑17	Conservative Growth	This portfolio is appropriate for investors who prefer a balanced mix of current income and capital appreciation, and are willing to tolerate some short‑term price fluctuations associated with equity (stock) investments. The assets in this portfolio are balanced among equities (stocks) and fixed‑income securities (bonds).
7‑10	Income	This portfolio is appropriate for investors whose primary objective is current income.
