Wait, so we're not going to use any math or statistics? Just a bunch of 'scenarios and situations'? Sounds like a recipe for disaster to me. I want my risks analyzed with cold, hard numbers, not some consultant's gut feeling.

Qualitative, huh? Well, at least it's not quantitative, which is just a fancy way of saying 'boring'. I say we go with the subjective approach and see what kind of crazy threats we can come up with.

Hold on, you're telling me we're going to look at 'scenarios and situations'? That's way too vague for my liking. I need hard facts and figures, not some consultant's best guess.

But shouldn't we also consider statistical probability calculations for exact loss?

A qualitative risk analysis sounds like a lot of guesswork to me. Why not just crunch the numbers and get precise probabilities? That's the only way to know for sure what we're dealing with.
