日本語 term

責任額比

日本語 から 英語 ビジネス/金融 製造
This is a stand-alone term, followed by a percentage, in an overview of a company's business performance. There is no further text pertaining to this term.

Does anyone know the appropriate English term? Is it liability ratio, or something similar?

Thank you in advance!

責任額比→責任負担額比率 Thank you all for your input. After pondering the term some more, I have come to believe that 責任額比 is shorthand for 責任負担額比率, or "liability expense ratio." I do appreciate your help.

liability ratio / liabilility percentage

Dictionary definition of 責任= responsibility, liability

Although there is little to go, I am electing to use "liability" rather than "responsibility" or another term.

Here is one definition of "責任" in the Shougakukan Progressive J-E Dictionary: 債務 = (a) liability for

My Contemporary Business Communication Dictionary definition of the following terms as per the below:
責任保険 = liability insurance [賠償金や費用を填補する保険」
債務を弁済する = meet one's liabilities

disagree xcoder : (Ah, disagree sounds too strong. But. Cinefil-san, I believe 'burden-sharing' is a specific (and authentic) concept/term in the field of international politics/international relations. )
