Answer is False
Non-systematic risk is diversifiable. That is the risk can be removed if there is appropriate diversification. Hence, market does not reward you for that risk, which can be diversified away.
However, systematic risk is non-diversifiable. One need to bear that risk if he is invested and that is the only portion of risk that an investor is compensated for.
