Permanent Establishment risk (PE risk) is the risk that the presence of an enterprise in a foreign country has inadvertently created a ‘permanent establishment’ in that country. Meaning the enterprise may inadvertently be liable for corporate income tax and other taxes on business activity.

You can create a custom value for Risk outcome for use in related features, by creating a new value in Level using Lookup Maintenance.
