Each investment instrument includes some degree of risk, and the soundness of investors' financial positions depends on understanding the risks and knowing how to balance them against potential returns, although the degrees of risk vary according to the type of debt, the issuer, and the credit rating degrees.

There is no doubt that a sound investment decision requires a practical analysis of the financial instruments to make an investment decision that is commensurate with the financial goals and strategies, taking into account the most important risks related to credit, liquidity, market, reputation and others.
