The identification of risk events involves the inventory of the internal and external events that could compromise the achievement of objectives. A distinction must be made between those that represent risks, those that constitute opportunities and those that result from both simultaneously. Opportunities are integrated in the strategy of the organization or in the objective setting procedure.
Risk events can be identified using several approaches that involve operational management to differing degrees.
