extinção do risco hazard extinction (or suppression)

Explanation:
Depende do tipo do risco e isso só o contexto poderá definir.
Se for risco ambiental, ecológico, etc. penso que o correcto é o termo hazard.

disappearance (extinguishing) of risk

Explanation:
Reason for cancellation: the risk has disappeared.

Extinguishing as a gerundive seems more natural in Eng. than a Dodo-type extinction.

'... There are a host of reasons for the virtual disappearance of risk as a constraint on investor behavior, and some of them are very good reasons. ...'
