D. establishment of a reliable basis for risk-aware decision making
The PRIMARY advantage of implementing an IT risk management framework is "D. establishment of a reliable basis for risk-aware decision making." An IT risk management framework provides a structured and systematic approach to identifying, assessing, and managing risks related to IT systems, processes, and operations. By having a well-defined framework in place, organizations can make informed and risk-aware decisions, ensuring that risks are considered in the context of strategic planning, resource allocation, and overall business objectives.
D. establishment of a reliable basis for risk-aware decision making
An IT risk management framework provides an organization with a systematic approach for identifying, evaluating, and addressing risks. It gives the organization a way to understand and prioritize risks based on their potential impact and likelihood. This, in turn, provides a reliable basis for decision-making, ensuring resources are used efficiently to manage risks. While all the options provided are potential advantages of implementing a risk management framework, establishing a reliable basis for risk-aware decision making is a primary advantage.
The FIRST advantage is the establishment of a base on which to make risk-aware decisions, that decision making can result in the improvement of controls and the minimization of losses (or not), but it is not the FIRST advantage.
Answer is D per the QAE 5th Edition book
R1-25 The MAIN objective of IT risk management is to:
A. prevent loss of IT assets.
B. provide timely management reports.
C. ensure regulatory compliance.
D. enable risk-aware business decisions.
D is the correct answer.
Justification:
A. Protecting IT assets in support of business objectives is a subordinate goal of IT risk management.
B. IT risk management can add value to reports; for example, it helps to document measurable return on IT
investment. However, reporting and timeliness are subordinate goals of IT risk management.
C. Meeting regulatory compliance requirements is a one of the objectives in an IT risk management framework.
D. IT risk management should be conducted as part of enterprisewide risk management, whose ultimate
objective is to support risk-aware business decisions.
Answer D is plausibly correct "A risk management framework can also provide protection against losses of competitive advantage, legal risks, and business opportunities. Remember, an effective risk management framework should be more than a set of standards and rules. It should have the ability to deliver actionable results that make a real difference in how your business and workforce perform in the long term".

Risk based decision covers on part of Risk Framework only (output of Risk assessment), other parts likes Risk Governance, reporting and monitoring, mitigation of risk should also be a part of Risk Framework. Therefore, B looks better to me
