In a market system, firm owners bear the primary risk of the business's success or failure. Employees and suppliers, while affected by a firm's performance, generally have contracts or agreements that provide some level of protection or predictability, thus shielding them more from the immediate risks of market fluctuations compared to the firm's owners.
