Litigation exposure refers to the potential for an individual or entity to face legal action or lawsuits. This risk arises from various activities, including contractual disputes, regulatory non-compliance, or alleged harm caused by operations. Managing litigation exposure involves proactive legal and operational risk mitigation.
