Question 83
(How is the effect of uncertainty on objectives classified as either positive or negative?)
Correct Answer: A
In risk and governance practice, uncertainty affecting objectives can produce both upside and downside outcomes. Many GRC and ERM teachings separate these into upside (reward/opportunity) and downside (risk/threat) impacts, reinforcing that risk management is not only loss prevention but also informed decision- making about value creation. Option A aligns with that common classification by naming the positive effect reward and the negative effect risk. The other options use terms that are not standard pairings in GRC language: "harm" is an outcome but not the typical umbrella classification opposite "benefit" (B), "prospect" is generally associated with upside rather than negative (C), and "obstacle" is not the usual term used to define negative uncertainty effects in ERM taxonomies (D). This framing supports balanced governance: leaders evaluate uncertainty relative to objectives, select responses (avoid, mitigate, transfer/share, accept, pursue), and ensure controls and incentives do not eliminate prudent risk-taking that enables strategic gains.
