Risk mitigation

Immediate and proper recognition by both ADB and the government counterparts of implementation delays, followed by the execution of prompt resolutory measures, will reduce the delays as well as their unintended consequences.

Well-thought-out adaptive and mitigating measures from executing and implementing agencies (EAs/IAs) can significantly help address the risk of delays and other implementation challenges.

Project processing teams need to anticipate and carefully assess all the external factors that could affect implementation and incorporate into the design the appropriate risk mitigation measures.
