''Investment management - risk appetite - flight to quality - rates of return - risk-free rate of return - risk assets.''

For practical investment management and portfolio management purposes, a risk asset is generally considered to be any asset that is not a risk-free asset. The usual example of a risk-free asset is short-dated debt obligations of a low-risk domestic central government.

Risk assets in this context include corporate bonds, equities, foreign exchange and all other tradable assets. However, the exact boundary between risk assets and risk-free assets can vary, depending on the purpose of the classification.

Historically, ''risk assets'' were also known as ''risky assets''.

More recently, ''risky'' would more often tend to refer to higher-risk assets - or higher-risk investment strategies - only.
