Meet the expert global investor

Making the right investment decisions can sometimes feel daunting, with the challenge of getting the right mix of stability and potential profit always top of mind.

We spoke to over 22,000 people who invest, from 30 countries, to explore how they make investment decisions. We asked them to rate their investment knowledge from ‘rudimentary’ up to ‘expert’. We found that those who feel they have a higher level of investment knowledge look for stability but aren’t afraid to seize opportunities. How do you compare?

...but that’s not to say they are overly cautious. Those with more knowledge take more risks with how they split their investments

Proportion of their portfolio people put in high risk investments

...and act quickly to seize the opportunity to invest more when the stockmarket goes down

Proportion of people who invest more in stockmarket related investments when the market drops

Those who feel they have a higher level of investment knowledge understand the benefits of having a mixed portfolio. But they embrace uncertainty and keep their finger on the pulse of stockmarket movements to seize opportunities.

Understanding how to get the balance right is key to long-term stability for your investments. The value of investments and the income from them may go down as well as up and investors may not get back the amounts originally invested.

Schroders commissioned Research Plus Ltd to conduct, between 20th March and 23rd April 2018, an independent online study of over 22,000 people in 30 countries around the world, including Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, India, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Spain, UAE, the UK and the US. This research defines "people" as those who will be investing at least €10,000 (or the equivalent) in the next 12 months and who have made changes to their investments within the last 10 years.
