Market Exposure

Definition

Market exposure denotes the extent to which an individual or entity is invested in a particular market or asset class, and thus subject to its price fluctuations. In the context of digital assets, it refers to the amount of capital allocated to cryptocurrencies, stablecoins, or other blockchain-based instruments. High market exposure to volatile crypto assets can result in significant gains or losses depending on market performance. Managing market exposure is a key aspect of risk management for investors.
