Before you invest
Loss capacity simulator
Work out how much you could lose without hardship: 10% of your net worth. Law 181/2023 (Art. 28) asks this of everyone who is not a sophisticated investor. No account needed.
Usually 31 December of last year. If your situation has changed a lot since then, pick a later day, up to today.
All income for the year after tax and contributions: salary, pension, benefits, dividends, interest, rent.
Money in accounts and what you can sell quickly. Property, personal belongings and earlier crowdfunding investments do not count.
Everything you must pay in a year: rent, mortgage, loans, maintenance, insurance, utilities, subscriptions, taxes.
Fill in the three amounts to see your estimate.
What counts: the rules of NCFM decision 46/2/2024
Net worth = net annual income + liquid assets − annual financial commitments
- Net annual income (EUR)
- Total income for the year after deducting taxes and social contributions: salaries, unemployment benefits, pensions, dividends, interest on deposits and bonds, rental and leasing income, and the like.
- Liquid assets (EUR)
- Money in savings and current accounts, and assets that can be turned into money easily and quickly: savings products you can draw on within 30 days at most; financial instruments traded on a regulated market; shares of an investment company or units of a fund redeemable at least once a week.
- Not liquid: property; personal belongings (a car, jewellery and the like); contributions to a voluntary pension fund; shares that cannot be freely sold or transferred, including earlier crowdfunding investments.
- Annual financial commitments (EUR)
- Everything you have committed to pay in a calendar year: maintenance and alimony, rent and mortgage payments, loan repayments, insurance premiums, utilities (electricity, heating, water), subscriptions, income tax and property tax.
- Reference date
- Liquid assets and commitments are valued at 31 December of last year, and income is last calendar year’s. If that date does not reflect your situation accurately, pick a later one, up to today: assets and commitments are then valued at that day, and income is that of the 12 months before it.
