Suggested Answer: C 🗳️
All identified risks, their characteristics, responses, and their status should be added and monitored as part of the risk register. A risk register is an inventory of risks and exposure associated with those risks. Risks are commonly found in project management practices, and provide information to identify, analyze, and manage risks. Typically a risk register contains:
✑ A description of the risk
✑ The impact should this event actually occur
✑ The probability of its occurrence
✑ Risk Score (the multiplication of Probability and Impact)
✑ A summary of the planned response should the event occur
✑ A summary of the mitigation (the actions taken in advance to reduce the probability and/or impact of the event)
✑ Ranking of risks by Risk Score so as to highlight the highest priority risks to all involved.
Incorrect Answers:
A: Control management charts are not the place where risk events are recorded.
B: This is a risk event and should be recorded in the risk register.
D: Risks that have a low probability and a low impact may go on the low-level risk watch-list.
