Uncertainty Avoidance
+ info
The term uncertainty and the avoidance thereof was first used in a business context in the book The Theory of the Firm.
The propensity for uncertainty avoidance affects the extent to which an organisation needs to structure its activities, that is, its attitude to risk.
Using the Uncertainty Avoidance Index (UAI), countries fall into different ranks depending on their tolerance for uncertainty. They develop and implement laws driven towards sustainable development and prevention of uncertainty.
