Risk Response
What is Risk Response?
Risk response refers to the strategies and actions an organization takes to address identified risks, ensuring they are managed effectively and aligned with business objectives. It involves selecting the most appropriate approach for each risk based on its likelihood, potential impact, and the organization’s risk tolerance. There are typically four types of risk responses:
- Avoidance: Eliminating the risk by changing plans or processes.
- Mitigation: Reducing the likelihood or impact of the risk through proactive measures.
- Transfer: Shifting the risk to another party, such as through insurance or outsourcing.
- Acceptance: Acknowledging the risk and choosing not to act because the impact is deemed manageable.
An effective risk response strategy is critical for minimizing disruptions, capitalizing on opportunities, and ensuring business continuity.
