    Warum und wann dieser Vorgang ausgeführt wird

    A risk manager can define the risk appetite and tolerance for the risk statement and then copy the qualitative risk appetite to the downstream risk statements and risks. It helps businesses to take risks within their organizational capabilities and define and manage an action plan when there's a breach. By defining the qualitative (numerical scale and ratings) and quantitative (monetary value) appetite, a risk user can understand the risk appetite and take decisions. For more information on the risk appetite and tolerance, see Risk appetite and tolerance in Advanced Risk.
