Explanation
The portfolio risk register is the authoritative artifact for tracking identified risks, their probability and impact assessments, planned response strategies, and - critically - the risk owners responsible for managing each risk. Documenting risk owners in the risk register ensures accountability, traceability, and visibility across the portfolio. The issue register (B) is for issues that have already occurred, not risks. Assigning ownership only at probability 1.0 (C) means the risk has already become an issue - too late. While component managers (A) may be involved, ownership is formally established by documentation in the risk register.
