What is Risk Profiling? An evaluation of an individual or organization's willingness to take risks, as well as the threats to which an organization is exposed. A risk profile identifies: 1. The acceptable level of risk an individual or corporation is prepared to accept. A corporation's risk profile attempts to determine how the corporation's willingness to take risk (or aversion to risk) will affect its overall decision-making strategy. 2. The risks and threats faced by an organization. The risk profile may include the probability of resulting negative effects, and an outline of the potential costs and level of disruption for each risk.
