RR1 through RR5 run from lower to higher risk
The five-level scale uses larger numbers for greater market-price volatility risk under the classification standard.
Ratings mainly classify volatility
The framework considers strategy, risk characteristics, and historical NAV volatility, with category-based standards.
RR does not capture every risk
Currency, concentration, credit, interest-rate, liquidity, political, and specialized-product risks are not fully summarized by one RR number.
Risk capacity must also consider time horizon and cash needs
Two investors with similar tolerance can still need different products if one needs the money in six months and the other can invest for ten years.
