Explanation

Portfolio management exists to help the organization achieve its strategic objectives by optimizing investments across components. A communications strategy that satisfies information requirements demonstrates that portfolio management is aligned with and supports those organizational objectives-this is the ultimate justification for the communications effort and for portfolio management itself. Option A (showing data will be analyzed) is a narrow, operational detail rather than a strategic purpose. Option B (providing credibility for portfolio management) is a side effect, not the primary purpose. Option D (pushing information to stakeholders) describes a delivery mechanism, not a strategic outcome. Meeting organizational objectives is the highest-level and most correct purpose.
