Question 159

A risk manager documents the causes in the risk register and needs to ensure the risk is adequately described. What is critical for the risk manager to consider when describing the causes?

    Correct Answer: B

    When describing the causes in a risk register, it is critical to ensure that the causes represent actual conditions. This ensures that the risk register is grounded in reality and based on factual information, which is essential for effective risk management. Adequately describing the risk involves identifying tangible and verifiable factors that contribute to the risk, rather than focusing on ownership, uncertainty, or validation alone.
