Entropy as a Measure of Risk. Like beta and volatility, entropy is used to measure financial risk as a measure of randomness. In the world of finance, risk is both bad and good depending on the needs of the investor; however, it is generally assumed that greater risk creates a higher probability for enhanced growth.
Keeping the entropy low for the defined system is not the only consideration in sustainable development. A very low entropy state is one of identical molecules in a matrix equally spaced apart; not a viable development situation. In addition to low entropy one also needs a certain degree of complexity or diversity. (See Signs of Life: How Complexity Pervades Biology.) One only has to look at nature to see low entropy and complexity work together. (See Biomimicry.) What is needed is low entropy and high complexity.
