Quantitative risk is the numerical determination of the probability of an adverse event and the extent of the losses due to the event. Quantitative risk is calculated as: (Probability of Loss) X (Loss) (Loss) / (Probability of Loss) (Probability of Loss) / (Loss) Significant Risks X Probability of Loss X Loss.
