Explanation
Corrective actions in risk management are reactive responses taken when a risk event actually occurs or is imminent. Performing the contingency plan (C) is the textbook corrective action - it is a pre-defined response that is executed once a risk trigger fires or the risk materializes. Risk audits (A) and risk reviews (D) are monitoring and control activities, not corrective actions. Engaging in additional risk response planning (B) is a proactive planning activity, not a corrective one. The key distinction is that corrective action addresses an event already unfolding, and the contingency plan is the prepared corrective mechanism.
