Thanks for your invite

In my opinion, there are two answers to this question.

Option 1 is answer D: This is the first choice that it should be exploited. Exploiting a risk means you will do everything so that you can increase the chance of it happenng. Here the full benefit will come to you if permitted or if the decision can be made by yourself.

Option 2 is answer B: Sometimes the risk will have to be shared if you cant get the full benefit by working alone or as another party is also required in taking the decision.

So the answer or correct option will depend on the situation.
