Explanation
Creating portfolio scenarios through what-if analysis - reviewing components against prioritization criteria and applying techniques such as options analysis, risk analysis, SWOT, and financial analysis - is performed specifically to evaluate and select viable options. The scenario-building process allows portfolio managers to compare alternative paths, assess trade-offs, and identify which options are feasible and aligned with strategic goals. Understanding strategic priorities (A) is an input to this work, not the purpose. Decision making (B) is facilitated by the output. Providing a guiding framework (D) describes the role of the Portfolio Roadmap, not scenario analysis.
