A Risk Retention Group is a type of insurance formed by members who associate specifically to form an insurance pool. Acceptable risk is the level of loss that such an association can handle and remain solvent.
A necessary risk with benefits that outweight the cost.
The primary disadvantage of risk retention is that it can lead to significant financial exposure if the retained risks materialize, resulting in unexpected costs or losses. Organizations may underestimate potential risks or lack adequate reserves to cover them, which can strain financial resources. Additionally, relying on risk retention may limit opportunities for diversification and risk transfer, potentially compromising overall risk management strategies.

Respond to increased risk and Reduce security risks to acceptable levels
In the Risk Management process, acceptable risk refers to the level of risk that an organization is willing to tolerate in pursuit of its objectives. This is often determined by weighing the potential benefits against the possible negative outcomes. Acceptable risks are typically those that fall within established thresholds or criteria, allowing the organization to operate effectively while managing its exposure to uncertainties. Ultimately, the definition of acceptable risk can vary based on the organization's risk appetite, regulatory environment, and strategic goals.
Liability insurance companies owned by their policyholders. Membership is limited to people in the same business or activity, which exposes them to similar liability risks. The purpose is to assume and spread liability exposure to group members and to provide an alternative risk financing mechanism for liability. These entities are formed under the Liability Risk Retention Act of 1986. Under law, risk retention groups are precluded from writing certain coverages, most notably property lines and workers' compensation. They predominately write medical malpractice, general liability, professional liability, products liability and excess liability coverages. They can be formed as a mutual or stock company, or a reciprocal.
A safety risk may be judged to be acceptable when the potential benefits outweigh the risks involved, and adequate measures are in place to mitigate those risks. This assessment often considers the likelihood and severity of potential harm, as well as compliance with relevant regulations and standards. Additionally, stakeholder perspectives and the context of the risk, including societal norms and values, play a crucial role in determining acceptability. Ultimately, ongoing monitoring and review are essential to ensure that the risk remains within acceptable limits.
Risk acceptance in composite risk management is a determination of what is an acceptable risk. One needs to determine what loss is acceptable and what loss is probable to determine if the loss is an acceptable risk.
