About this file

This document provides a risk analysis template for applicants seeking grant funding from the Department of State Bureau of Population Refugees and Migration under the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program federal grant program. The template outlines a suggested format for applicants to identify and assess potential risks to project objectives, outcomes, organizational operations, and personnel safety and security that could stem from both internal and external factors. Risks should be described, rated on likelihood and potential impact, and have associated mitigation plans. Applicants must address risks of fraud and corruption as well as inadvertently benefiting terrorists. The template is intended to guide a thorough, ongoing risk analysis process throughout a project rather than a one-time exercise. Safety and security of recipients and beneficiaries are paramount, and grantees must conduct risk assessments and take necessary actions to mitigate identified risks as the Department does not assume liability for recipient risks.

Risk Analysis Template The purpose of the risk analysis is to identify the internal and external risks associated with the proposed project in the application, rate the likelihood of the risks, rate the potential impact of the risks on the project, and identify actions that could help mitigate the risks. A risk analysis should not be considered a one-time exercise or a static document. PRM defers to organizations to conduct adequate risk analysis and remediation for all of its operations and advises that risk analysis and remediation occur throughout the life of a project and should result in revisions to risk analysis documents and processes as necessary.

A suggested format for a risk analysis document is below. Applicants should include all assumptions and external factors identified in the logic model in the risk analysis. Under “Description of Risk,” the risk analysis should address any risk of fraud and corruption, as well as assess the level of risk that the proposed program may inadvertently benefit terrorists or their supporters. Under “Likelihood of Risk” and “Potential Impact of Risk,” applicants should rate the as “High,” “Medium,” or “Low.” Additional lines can be included in the risk analysis table as necessary.

The safety and security of recipients and beneficiaries are of utmost importance. PRM requires all recipients to conduct thorough risk assessments and take all actions necessary in accordance with those assessments to mitigate those risks. PRM does not take responsibility for the risks incurred by any recipient.
