   How is uncertainty different from risk?

   • Uncertainty, where we do not know the probabilities of either likelihoods or outcomes, is different to risk, the implications of which are explored in this paper through five different ways of thinking about uncertainty, derived from highly diverse literatures encompassing societal, political, cultural, practice and individual perspectives.

   Why is severe uncertainty important today?

   • Severe uncertainty is especially relevant now because we increasingly face situations involving it. Examples abound, including climate mitigation policy, Coronavirus reaction, economic policy, and of course business decisions.

   What is a source of uncertainty?

   • In decision making, the first source of uncertainty is the data themselves. When gathering data in an uncertain context, we tend to pay too much attention to the most readily available information. For instance, at the beginning of a crisis, especially in Western countries, we might recall stored memories about the flu when we hear the word 'virus'.

   What does uncertainty mean in economics?

   • Uncertainty in economics refers to uncertainty in the minds of consumers, managers, and policymakers about possible futures. It is a broad concept, including uncertainty over the path of macro phenomena like GDP growth, micro phenomena like the growth rate of firms, and noneconomic events like war and climate change.

   What are the characteristics of severe uncertainty?

   • In severe uncertainty, a central characteristic is the lack of justified probabilities. For example, when tossing a coin, we know precisely the probability of heads. However, economists assume that all uncertainties are like glorified coin tosses, where we can come up with a precise probability for whatever might happen, even if we might not always be right about it.
