Alonso Valentine · Answer 1

The correct answer is A. Reduces private-sector economic risk.

Explanation:

Economic risk refers to the uncertainty produced in the return on investment due to changes in the economic situation of the sector in which the company operates. Thus, by way of example, this risk may come from: the management policy of the company, the policy of distribution of products or services, the appearance of new competitors, the alteration in the tastes of consumers, and so on.

Economic risk is a direct consequence of investment decisions. So the structure of the company's assets is responsible for the level and variability of operating benefits.
