Risk profile
How this risk is described and categorized.
"Alternative financial data of a company is any data about the company not pro- duced by that company. Examples of such data that can benefit from improved collection and aggregation using AI models include stock discussions on social media, product reviews, and satellite imagery. The use of alternative financial data, enabled by the deployment of AI models, may introduce biases and generalization issues due to shorter shelf-life and vary- ing quality (e.g., shorter time series, smaller sample sizes, and dubious claims) due to its origins from various sources, posing financial tail risks (i.e., tail-end of a probability distribution), where the price of a company changes dramatically [4]."
