German term
risikobehaftet
German to English

"Risikobehaftet" comes up a lot in this text (contrasted with risk-free) and I'm looking for a concise translation. Can anyone think of anything better than "risk-carrying"?
• Bei Verbindlichkeiten aus Finanzierungsleasingverhältnissen tritt das Unternehmen als Leasingnehmer auf. Der Schuldner bleibt im Besitz des Leasingobjektes und hat somit ein relativ geringes Ausfallrisiko (besicherte Vermietung), sofern es sich bei dem Leasingobjekt um einen Vermögenswert handelt, der geringen Wertschwankungen (wie bspw. bei Immobilien) unterliegt. In solchen Fällen kann die risikobehaftete Komponente des Diskontierungszinssatzes reduziert werden bzw. sogar ganz entfallen. Handelt es sich bei dem Leasingobjekt hingegen um einen wertmäßig volatilen Vermögenswert (z.B. IT-Leases), sollte die risikobehaftete Komponente zumindest teilweise berücksichtigt werden.

risk
used as an adjective here, giving "risk component".
What it looks to be saying is that in the cases described, the risk component of the discount rate (as opposed to the component of the discount rate reflecting the time value of money) can be reduced or eliminated in its entirety. But if the value of the leased asset is volatile, the discount rate should reflect the risk component at least in part.

entailing a risk of loss
This will certainly do, though there may be better alternatives.

risk-fraught
Another suggestion. The dictionary translation would be "fraught with risk" (http://dict.leo.org/) but "risk-fraught" does crop up every so often.
e.g.
"In today’s increasingly adversarial and litigious business environment, the due diligence review is one of the most important and risk-fraught elements of any investment."
(http://www.angel-investor-news.com/005.htm)
"Clearly, then, even at its present 'low' price Solution 6 remains a risk-fraught speculation rather than a sensible investment."
(http://www.leithner.com.au/circulars/circular13.htm)

I think "risky" is the most accurate, but here's another option I found via Google.
