[Asia Economy Reporter Oh Ju-yeon] KB Securities announced that starting from the 16th, its Research Center's corporate analysis reports will present not only stock returns but also risk levels. This measure was prepared to enable customers to manage risk alongside pursuing returns in a market with increased volatility.


KB Securities Research Center will provide a table classifying expected return levels and stock price volatility into five stages each for stock analysis reports containing 'investment opinions' and 'target prices,' allowing investors to grasp both expected returns and risk levels at a glance.


The returns applied in the analysis are based on total returns reflecting cash dividends over the past three years, and risk is analyzed based on the volatility of weekly returns over the past three years.



Yoo Seung-chang, head of KB Securities Research Center, said, "We have advanced from analyses that only present returns on stocks to include risk as a key factor in investment decisions," adding, "We expect this to help investors make appropriate investment decisions by considering their individual target returns, risk preferences, and risk tolerance."
