PRINCE2F PRINCE2 Practices Practice Question
Which TWO of the following are components of the Business Case?
⚠ Common exam trap

Correct answer & explanation
✓
Expected benefits
The Business Case in PRINCE2 is the key document that justifies the project's initiation and continued viability. It must include the expected benefits (B) to demonstrate the positive outcomes the project aims to achieve, and it must identify major risks (E) to provide a balanced view of the potential downsides and uncertainties. These two components are explicitly required by the PRINCE2 Business Case theme.
