The paper extends the definition of coherent risk measures, as introduced by Artzner, Delbaen, Eber and Heath, to general probability spaces. It is shown how to define such measures on the space of all random variables. Examples that relates the theory of coherent risk measures to game theory and to distorted probability measures are given. The mathematics are based on the characterization of closed convex sets $${\mathcal P}_{\sigma}$$ of probability measures that satisfy the property that every random variable is integrable for at least one probability measure in the set $${\mathcal P}_{\sigma}$$.
