What is Acceptance Risk?

What is Acceptance Risk?

The major goal of risk management is to identify and analyze risks and devise means to combat the risk. A risk can be accepted, transferred, avoided, minimized, and retained. Acceptance risk is an organizational risk that is identified, and the organization sees no need to spend money and time reducing the risk because its impact is bearable.
