SIE CANDIDATES, KNOW ALL ABOUT DIFFERENT INVESTMENT RISKS BEFORE YOU TAKE THE EXAM
Before you go and sit for the Securities Industry Essentials (SIE) exam, make sure you know about different risk types. Be able to define and identify each of these types.
FINRA publishes a Content Outline on its web site for the SIE exam, and in section 2.2 specifically mentions 10 different investment risks. Thus, FINRA is telling SIE candidates that they need to know these and be able to define and identify them.
Bob Eder has a detailed analysis of each risk in his Study for the Securities Industry Exam on pages 145-151. Here is an example from Bob Eder's book:
Management Risk (2.2)
This is the risk of the uncertainty of the quality
and ability of management overseeing the investment. A corporate management
team may make good or bad decisions that will affect profits and stock prices.
Although everyone knows that future happenings are related only tenuously to
past history, the track record of management in the past often indicates
improved chance of success in the future.
