Motivation
Why PIRP?
After years of working with suitability assessment frameworks, investment products, and investor-protection regulations, a recurring observation emerged: the same investor could receive different risk profiles from different institutions, often without understanding how those outcomes were generated.
This observation led to a simple question: “What if investors owned their risk profile instead of financial institutions?”
That question eventually became the foundation of the Portable Investment Risk Profile (PIRP).
An idealist who believes that meaningful change is possible — with enough persistence and determination.
