Title: Mind the Gap: Inconsistencies Between Subjective and Objective Financial Risk Tolerance.
Authors: Marinelli, Nicoletta (AUTHOR), Mazzoli, Camilla (AUTHOR), Palmucci, Fabrizio (AUTHOR)

Subjects: Financial risk, Default (Finance), Risk assessment, Accounting, Investments, Financial literacy
Abstract: Investors' financial risk tolerance is crucial in the formulation of suitable financial advice; in the past, assessment efforts relied on multiple approaches and techniques, but their consistency is still an issue. The authors focus on 2 metrics traditionally proposed (self-assessment and portfolio composition) and test their mutual consistency on a sample of 2,374 investors. The approach allows them to discriminate between inconsistencies due to wrong portfolio compositions and those arising from wrong self-assessments. The authors show that low financial literacy, high income, no children, and incautious economic behavior are commonly associated with such inconsistencies. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
