Explanation:
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.

The effectiveness of a control action plan's implementation can be measured by the extent to which it achieves the desired risk reduction. A control action plan is a set of actions that are designed to address the root causes of a risk and mitigate its impact or likelihood. The best indicator of the effectiveness of a control action plan's implementation is the reduced risk level, which means that the risk is either eliminated or brought within the acceptable range. The other options are not the best indicators, because they do not directly reflect the risk reduction. Increased number of controls may not necessarily reduce the risk level, especially if the controls are not aligned with the risk causes, objectives, and priorities. Increased risk appetite may indicate a higher tolerance for risk, but it does not mean that the risk level has been reduced. Stakeholder commitment may facilitate the implementation of the control action plan, but it does not guarantee the effectiveness of the plan.
