## Definition

The risk that an investor will lose part of his invested capital as a result of rising prices and, in the worst case, lose it entirely (the risk that the investor will recover his investment with a depreciated currency: that he will receive a return below the inflation rate). - See monetary value, hyperinflation, inflation, inflation bonds, inflation buyers, middle class, squeezed, swap, inflation-indexed.
