Taking the measure of your risk profile is generally designed to show you how heavily you should be invested in the stock market. It is an indicator of your ability to accept a higher rate of return in exchange for risking principal.
Find your risk tolerance by choosing the statement that best fits your attitude.

Important information about procedures for opening a new account
To help the government fight the funding of Terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each person who opens an account.
What this means to you: When you open an account, we will ask you for your name, address, date of birth and other information that will allow us to identify you. We may also ask to see your driver's license or other identifying documents.
