Chief risk officer

A Chief Risk Officer is a special kind of boss, who makes sure that a company doesn't take on too much risk. They help the company make smart decisions about how to handle their money and investments. For example, if a company was thinking about investing in a new type of stock, the Chief Risk Officer would research the stock to make sure it's a good investment and not something that could cause the company to lose a lot of money. The Chief Risk Officer helps keep the company safe and makes sure they don't take on too much financial risk.
