Explanation

Risk urgency assessment focuses on how quickly a risk needs to be addressed. Indicators of risk priority and urgency include: (A) Risk rating - a combined measure of probability and impact; (B) Warning signs - early signals that a risk is about to materialize; and (D) Symptoms - observable conditions that indicate a risk event may be occurring. The overall cost of the project (C) is a project parameter, not a risk-specific urgency indicator. It does not help determine how soon a specific risk needs attention, making it the exception.
