What it means

Why this metric matters

Risk density shows how heavily regulation weights the balance sheet. A higher value often reflects more credit exposure and fewer low-risk or zero-weight assets.

How it is calculated

Formula and source fields

risk_weighted_assets / NULLIF(total_assets, 0) * 100

Source fields: RWAJ + ASSET. Not annualized.
