Risk question

Experts/Admin.. Please tell me the answer..   

 

As a project manager, you understand the importance of identifying and documenting project risks. In this context, which of the following statements is true?

 
     Choice 1     Risk identification occurs during the Planning of the project
 
     Choice 2     Risk identification occurs during Monitoring and Controlling of the project
 
     Choice 3     Risk identification occurs during Execution of the project
 
     Choice 4     Risk identification occurs during different project stages depending on the type of the project

The answer is A?


As I known, identify risk occurs during planning or Monitoring and controlling. But here is asking "understand the importance of identifying and documenting project risks", so should be in the planning process.

I would go with "A" as well. Risk id is an iterative process, however, somehow the structure of option "D" does not fit much.


 


So, I would go with since Risks are essentially identified during planning procee.
