Explanation
Risk ownership is the most important detail to capture in an organization's risk register. Risk ownership is the responsibility for managing a risk, including taking corrective action, and should be assigned to a specific individual or team. It is important to note that the risk owner is not necessarily the same as the risk acceptor, who is the individual or team who makes the final decision to accept a risk. Capturing risk ownership in the risk register is important to ensure that risks are actively managed and that the responsible parties are held accountable.
