I’m leaning towards "secondary risks" too, but I can't shake the feeling that "in flux risks" was mentioned in one of our readings. It’s a bit confusing!

I thought it was "chain risks," but now that I think about it, "secondary risks" makes more sense. I remember a question about this in our mock tests.

I'm not entirely sure, but "reactionary risks" sounds familiar. I feel like we covered something similar in our last practice exam.

I think the term we're looking for is "secondary risks." I remember discussing how risk responses can sometimes lead to new risks in our study group.
