Risk appetite refers to the level and type of risk an organization is willing to accept in pursuit of its objectives, typically defined by senior leadership and boards as part of governance and strategic planning. It provides a framework for decision-makers to determine which risks are acceptable versus which require mitigation or avoidance. Risk and compliance professionals use documented risk appetite statements to guide consistent risk-taking behavior across an organization.
