According to the Risk Management Essentials, a risk profile is established to enhance senior management's analysis and decision making related to priority setting and resource allocation. A risk profile is a description of a set of risks that an organization faces, and it helps to make the risks visible and understandable. By having a documented risk profile, an organization can identify the nature and level of the threats, assess the likelihood and impact of the risks, evaluate the effectiveness of the controls, and determine the risk appetite and tolerance. This information can help the organization to make well-informed decisions on how to manage the risks and achieve its objectives.
