= Distortion risk measure
{wiki=Distortion_risk_measure}
The Distortion Risk Measure is a concept used in risk management and finance to evaluate the risk of a given portfolio or investment by applying a distortion function to the probability distribution of potential outcomes. Unlike traditional risk measures, which might focus solely on moments like the mean or variance of returns, distortion risk measures apply a transformation to the probability distribution to emphasize certain tail risks or to reflect an individual's or institution's risk preferences.
