Explanation
The risk register is the single repository for all identified risks - both negative risks (threats) and positive risks (opportunities). There is no such thing as a separate 'negative risk register' (A) in standard project/program management frameworks. The risk management plan (B) describes the approach, methodology, roles, and processes for managing risk - it does not store individual risk entries. The issues log (D) captures issues that have already occurred and require resolution, not risks that might occur in the future. All identified risks, regardless of whether they are threats or opportunities, are logged in the risk register along with their probability, impact, response strategies, and owners.
