Wait, can KRIs really map costs to risks? Not so sure about that.

Qualitative forecasting seems a bit vague for this question; I feel like it wouldn't provide the concrete mapping needed for costs and risks.

I practiced a similar question where BIA was the answer, and it makes sense since it evaluates the financial impact of disruptions.

I think scenario-based assessments might help in understanding potential costs, but I feel like BIA is more focused on impacts rather than direct cost mapping.

This is a tricky one. I'm not super familiar with all of these risk assessment methods, so I'll need to rely on my understanding of the question to guide me towards the right answer.

Okay, I've got a strategy for this. I'll eliminate the options that don't seem directly relevant to mapping cost to risk, then evaluate the remaining ones to select the best choice.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. Mapping cost to risk could be done in different ways, so I'll need to think through each of these options carefully to determine the best approach.
