Risk Management: Overview
The Risk Management functionality in Amp Impact has two key components:
It is related to assessing and managing risks at the program or grant/portfolio level for international NGOs or Funders respectively;
It is related to implementation and execution-focused risks; that is, risks that may impede achieving impact in a given program, grant or portfolio
This consists of Identifying and Defining Risks, creating Mitigation Strategies for those risks, collecting risks in Risk Registers based on their categories, and conducting periodic Risk Assessments for Identified Risks.

Risk Management: Summary of Key Relationships
There are six key relationships that are foundational to the overall use of Amp Impact:
Risk: This relationship enables organizations to view details the details of any unforeseen events that may have a negative effect on a project or activity.
Risk Register: This relationship enables organizations to view risks in groups.
Risk Assessment: This relationship enables organizations to evaluate and/or measure risks in a periodic manner.
Risk Action: This relationship enables organizations to keep details of actions to respond to or alleviate risks.
Risk Relationship: This relationship enables organizations to relate risks to each other.
Risk Cause: This relationship enables organizations to document the details and causes of risks.
Here is a summary of these relationships:
