Risk tolerance varies widely among organizations based on many factors, including the organization's overall business goals, the relative risk sensitivity of organizational leaders, and the nature of its assets, resources, and the operational processes they support. As business priorities can often shift and risks lie largely outside of a company's control, in-house legal teams play a key role in anticipating and mitigating the impact of major risks.
