# Risk and Mitigant Register

## When to use

Use this skill from the point diligence findings start landing through to the first board meeting after close. The IC memo carries a risk matrix; this is the instrument behind it, kept live and handed over at completion. Reach for it when the risk section reads as a list of things that might go wrong rather than decisions taken.

## What it does

Produces a register in which each risk is sized in the currency of the deal, matched to one mitigant with one named owner and a date, assessed for what remains after it, and classified as priced, transferred, mitigated or accepted -- ending with the accepted risks on one page.

## Method

1. **Harvest, never invent.** Every entry traces to a finding in a workstream, cited by source. Generic risks -- competition, cyclicality, key person -- are cut unless a finding gives them a number.
2. **Size before you rank.** Express each risk as EBITDA at risk, enterprise value at risk, or months of delay. "Customer concentration" is not a risk; "the top customer, 18% of revenue, renews eleven months after close" is.
