Understanding risk in shares

Shares give investors direct ownership in individual companies, allowing targeted investment in businesses they believe to have strong growth prospects or unique competitive advantages.

While shares offer potential for high returns, their concentrated nature makes them inherently riskier than investment options that offer diversification with a broader range of companies, industries, asset classes and even geographies.

Investing in shares can require a higher risk tolerance and longer investment horizons to weather market downturns.
