Taking on or accepting responsibility, risk, or a role together with another party; jointly assuming.
From co- (together) and assuming (from Latin 'assumere' meaning to take up). Legal and business terminology for shared obligation.
When companies form partnerships, they're often coassuming risk—this word captures the legal reality that both parties are equally on the hook, making it much more serious than if one party bore all the burden.
