   A project manager is assessing the risk complexity of a project that involves a new technology, a large number of stakeholders, and a regulatory requirement that is still being finalized. The project has a fixed budget and a deadline that is unlikely to change. What is the most appropriate way to assess the risk complexity?

   • ADefer risk analysis until the regulatory requirement is finalized, because early analysis would be based on incomplete information.
   • BAsk each stakeholder group to identify risks independently and then combine the results without cross-group analysis.
   • CFocus on the regulatory requirement as the primary source of risk, and analyze its impact on the schedule and budget.
   • DConsider the interdependencies between the new technology, the stakeholders, and the regulatory requirement, and analyze how they could affect the fixed deadline.
