1.  ''Hedging - regret risk.''
''Sustainability - United Nations - Sustainable Development Goals.''


The worsening of a financial position when effectively 'locked in' to a course of action or to a particular fixed price or rate, compared with the alternative which could have been followed without the lock-in.
Abbreviation for the UN's Sustainable Development Goal 10,  


For example, there is always a risk of opportunity losses when using a fixing instrument to effectively lock in a (committed) price.
"Reduce inequality within and among countries".


We are effectively locked in to the predetermined and committed price, instead of being free to take advantage of actual market rates (if they turn out to be more favourable).
This type of loss is also sometimes known as an 'opportunity cost'.
