Explanation
A teaming agreement is a formal arrangement where two or more organizations collaborate to jointly pursue an opportunity or manage a risk. This is an example of the 'Sharing' risk response strategy, which is used for positive risks (opportunities) or when the risk's upside or downside is distributed across parties. Sharing involves allocating ownership of a risk to a third party best positioned to handle it. It differs from Transference (which shifts the entire burden, typically via insurance or contracts), Mitigation (which reduces probability/impact), and Acceptance (which acknowledges the risk without taking action). Because a teaming agreement establishes mutual accountability and joint reward/risk, it is definitively a sharing strategy.
