Question

Which of the following are characteristics of qualitative risk assessments as opposed to quantitative? (Choose two.)

Options

AQualitative assessments are more difficult.
BQualitative assessments are faster.
CQualitative assessments require fewer resources.
DQualitative assessments provide more accurate results.
EQualitative assessments better identify opportunities.

Explanation

Qualitative risk assessments use descriptive scales (e.g., High/Medium/Low) to prioritize risks based on probability and impact, making them faster (B) and less resource-intensive (C) than quantitative methods. Quantitative assessments use numerical data, statistical models, and simulations (e.g., Monte Carlo analysis), which require more time, data, and expertise. Qualitative assessments are NOT more difficult (A) - they are simpler. They do NOT provide more accurate results (D) - quantitative analysis is more precise. They do not inherently better identify opportunities (E).
