Behavioral finance is almost a new and expanding field. It has been more popular and recognized in the last 40 years. It explains how people make economic decisions considering traditional finance end economic theory with behavioral and cognitive psychology. It is a complement that tries to fill the gap between theory and practice using scientific insights and cognitive reasoning with traditional economic and financial theory in a market where investors often make investment decisions irrationally. This field is approaching to understand the influences of human behavior applied to people, groups or institutions making investment decisions. The purpose of this paper is to study and establish the relationship between tolerance risk and financial bias on people in Peru that invest on mutual funds. The study includes a tolerance risk scale developed by Grabble & Lytton (1999) and behavioral finance biases as representativeness, overconfidence, availability, regret aversion, loss aversion and mental accounting. This study has a non-experimental research design with cross-sectional application and an explanatory type of study, which was applied to a sample of 384 individuals. To test hypothesis, this study employs descriptive analysis, correlation, and multiple regression analysis. Moreover, by performing statistics tools like pearson correlation and regression analysis, this study found that tolerance risk and behavioral finance are significantly related. Additionally, considering the biases selected for this study, representativeness and overconfidence have a medium relation, availability and loss aversion have a low relation, regret aversion and mental accounting have no relation with risk tolerance.
