Risk Tolerance Assessment

Your responses to the following questions will be used by your financial advisor to assess your risk tolerance. Your risk tolerance is an important consideration in making investment recommendations that are suitable for you. It is therefore important that your responses be as accurate as possible and that you keep your advisor apprised of any material changes to your financial circumstances or risk tolerance.

This risk tolerance assessment was designed to be used in conjunction with the Raymond James proprietary risk rating system. It should not be relied upon or considered valid unless used in conjunction with that system which is available only to clients of Raymond James. This assessment does not constitute investment advice and should not be relied upon for any such purpose. There are no guarantees regarding the accuracy or adequacy of the score card, risk profile, percentages, ranges or investment objectives.

By completing this questionnaire, you consent to the collection and use of your personal information by Raymond James so that your Raymond James financial advisor can assess your profile and risk tolerance. If a client, it will be used to assist with the administration of your account in keeping with the firm's privacy policy available at: www.raymondjames.ca. This information will not be retained in the event you do not become a client of Raymond James by Dec. 31 of the calendar year following completion of this form.
