Why each option

The Risk Owner is the designated individual accountable for developing risk responses and monitoring their implementation progress throughout the project lifecycle.

AProduct Manager

The Product Manager oversees product development and roadmap but is not assigned formal responsibility for risk response development or monitoring within the risk management framework.

BRisk Action Owner

The Risk Action Owner is responsible for carrying out specific tasks within a risk response plan, not for developing the overall response strategy or monitoring implementation status.

CRisk OwnerCorrect

Per PMI risk management standards, the Risk Owner is formally assigned responsibility for developing appropriate responses to identified risks and monitoring the status of those responses as they are implemented. This role is distinct from those who execute specific risk actions, as the Risk Owner holds overall accountability for the risk's treatment and its ongoing status.

DProject Manager

The Project Manager holds overall project accountability but delegates specific risk response development and monitoring responsibility to the Risk Owner for each identified risk.
