I thought internal control was more about planning processes, so I might go with B, but I’m not completely confident.

I'm a bit confused by the wording of these options. They all seem to be talking about risk management in some way. I'll need to re-read the question and options more closely to make sure I understand the difference between them.

Hmm, I'm a little unsure about this one. Internal control could be about planning to avoid risk, or designing models to avoid risk. I'll need to think this through carefully before selecting an answer.

Hold up, option C has to be the winner here. Designing models to avoid risks is where it's at. That's some serious internal control wizardry right there.
