Explanation
When each team reports risks differently, the CEO loses visibility into how individual risks collectively affect the overall project portfolio. Centralizing risk management creates a unified view, allowing leadership to monitor cumulative risk impact against the overall project risk exposure - not just siloed team-level risks. Option A (identification of individual project risks) is still done at the team level. Option C (ownership and trigger monitoring) is a specific function within risk management, not the main benefit of centralization. Option D (a single repository) is a byproduct, but the more impactful resolution is the holistic exposure monitoring described in B.
