Use the risk quiz first to get a recommended allocation. The Monte Carlo simulator helps you understand probability of hitting targets given expected returns/volatility. Use stress tests to see vulnerability to shocks.
Risk & Scenario Analysis Suite
Monte Carlo simulator, risk tolerance quiz with allocation suggestions, and stress-testing for portfolios — built for UK investors.
Risk Tolerance Quiz
QuickAnswer a few questions to get a suggested asset allocation and expected return/volatility.
Monte Carlo Simulator
ProjectionRun multiple simulated market-return paths to estimate the probability of reaching a target portfolio value.
Stress Test
ScenariosApply shocks and scenarios to an example portfolio to see the immediate and multi-year impact.
Quick guidance
Use the risk quiz first to get a recommended allocation. The Monte Carlo simulator helps you understand probability of hitting targets given expected returns/volatility. Use stress tests to see vulnerability to shocks.
Default model assumptions
- Equity expected return: 6.5% (vol 16%)
- Bond expected return: 1.5% (vol 6%)
- Cash return: 0.5% (vol 1%)
- Correlation between assets assumed moderately positive
Allocation cheat-sheet
Typical allocations by risk profile (equity : bonds : cash):
Conservative | 30 : 60 : 10 |
Balanced | 50 : 40 : 10 |
Growth | 70 : 25 : 5 |
Aggressive | 90 : 8 : 2 |
Methodology (brief)
Monte Carlo: geometric returns per period from normal distribution (Box–Muller). Scenarios: apply year-by-year shocks and compound using simple assumptions. Quiz: score-based mapping to allocations and blended expected return/volatility.
