Competition Risk
What is Competition Risk?
Competition Risk refers to the potential threat a business faces from current or emerging competitors that may impact its market share, pricing power, profitability, or strategic position. This risk arises when rival companies introduce better products, lower prices, or more innovative strategies, forcing others to adapt or lose relevance.
In fast-moving industries, competition risk can evolve rapidly, especially due to technological advancements, changing customer preferences, or global market entries.
