What best defines objective risks?

Objective risks are best defined by the method of assessing them through empirical data, specifically by counting similar risk events that have occurred in the past. This approach relies on measurable and quantifiable outcomes rather than personal beliefs or subjective judgments. By analyzing historical data, insurers and risk managers can identify patterns and frequency of risks, providing a reliable basis for predicting future occurrences and estimating potential losses.

This empirical nature sets objective risks apart from other types that may involve qualitative factors or personal perceptions. In particular, relying on subjective judgments or individual experiences introduces variability and uncertainty that are not present in objective assessments grounded in historical data. Furthermore, considering political opinions or qualitative assessments can cloud the assessment process and lead to less reliable conclusions about potential risks. Therefore, calculating risks based solely on past events offers a more objective and rational way to understand and manage risk in various contexts, particularly in insurance and risk management fields.
