risk profile
Tolerance for uncertainty
A risk profile is an assessment of someone's or something's exposure to potential dangers or losses.
In finance, it describes an investor's tolerance for uncertainty: Her risk profile is conservative—mostly bonds and stable funds.
Organizations evaluate their risk profiles when making strategic decisions.
The term captures both the likelihood and magnitude of potential negative outcomes.
