What is the BEA Risk Level?
The BEA Risk Level is assigned by BEA to each distributing unit trust product on a scale from 1 to 4, with 1 indicating the lowest risk category and 4 being the highest. The risk level of each unit trust is assigned by BEA according to the price volatility and various risk factors, such as equity market risk, political risk, and concentration risk of the investments. The categorisation results may be different from those provided by the respective fund houses.
