Investment Advisory Risk Profile and Suitability Readiness

Investment advisory work should begin with facts, not product names. A useful discussion needs goals, time horizon, risk comfort, income, expenses, liabilities, existing investments, tax context, and liquidity needs.

No serious advisory file should rely on return promises. The core is suitability.

Prepare the client profile

List short-term and long-term goals, family obligations, business cash needs, emergency fund, insurance, loans, and planned withdrawals. Add existing investments and tax records.

Suitability file

Record risk profile, product category, time horizon, liquidity, tax impact, costs, conflicts, and review date. Separate education from regulated advice and product distribution.

SEBI-aware boundaries

SEBI regulates investment advisers. Users should understand who is advising, who is distributing, what fees apply, what conflicts exist, and how suitability is recorded.
