The investor profile

On the client's Profile tab, the investor profile holds:

  • Classification: retail, professional, accredited, qualified or institutional, with a document as evidence.
  • Risk profile: conservative, balanced, growth or aggressive.
  • Experience: none, some or experienced; investment horizon; typical ticket range; objectives such as income, growth, preservation, diversification and tax efficiency.
  • Suitability: the date the questionnaire was completed.
  • Screening: whether the client is a politically exposed person (PEP), and the sanctions screening result (not screened, clear or possible match) with date, provider and note.

Where classification matters

A market can require a minimum classification to order. They rank from retail, the lowest, through professional, accredited and qualified to institutional. A client below the minimum sees an explanation instead of the order button.

Important: Many jurisdictions limit what can be offered to retail investors. EasyHaus stores and enforces the classification you record, but deciding who qualifies is your responsibility.
