Question 18 • S25 Introduction to Business A (Theisen)
Pure risk involves the possibility of a loss or no loss, such as damage to a home or a car accident. Insurers can estimate and pool these losses, so pure risk is the type most likely to be insurable. Speculative risk involves the possibility of either a gain or a loss, such as investing, and is generally not insured.
