Risk tolerance: the acceptable variation in outcomes related to specific performance measures linked to objectives the entity seeks to achieve.

Risk Reimagined!The word “appetite” brings connotations of food, hunger and satisfying one’s needs. We think that this metaphor is not helpful in understanding the phrase “risk appetite”. When those two words appear together we think it is more appropriate to think in terms of “fight or flight” responses to perceived risks. Source: Risk Appetite & Tolerance, IRM, 2011

Our interpretation of risk appetite is that it represents a corporate version of exactly the same instincts and cognitive processes. Except of course, as a legal fiction (as opposed to a biological reality) organisations do not have their own brains, nervous systems, sensory organs and instincts.
