Product Risk Classification

Investor Protection regulations such as MiFID, PRIIPs, and FinSA require clear, consistent risk indicators in the advisory process to help investors understand the risk level of in-scope instruments. In practice, multiple methodologies exist across asset classes - often emphasizing only market or credit risk - leading to gaps in coverage and inconsistent comparisons. Advisors are left reconciling similar yet non-identical indicators, increasing operational friction and the potential for misalignment in client guidance. The Product Risk Classification package provides a unified, synthetic risk measure across all major asset classes, enabling consistent, comparable, and regulator-aligned risk assessments. Financial institutions can streamline their advisory processes, ensure consistent risk communication, and improve client outcomes with confidence.
