Explanation:
Risiken werden nicht "behoben". Fehler kan man beheben. Risiken werden "kontrolliert", "gesteuert", "verringert", "vermieden", "ausgeschaltet". Hängt vom Kontext. Der deutsche Begriff selbst ist nicht korrekt. Ich würde "prevention" oder "control" favorisieren, wenn es um Vermeidung von Risiken geht.

neutral  Steffen Pollex (X): "reduction", IMO, is a term relating more to technical issues, meaning the physical reduction, vanishing, decline of something.

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
disagree  Steffen Pollex (X): "Loss" is not the same as "risk". "Risk" should not be reduced to just "losses". Once more, "google" delivers a very poor result.

  -> I am very sorry, but that's what it is called in British English. Don't translate individual words; translate into something the natives can understand!
disagree  Louise Mawbey: Sorry Sven, I agree with Steffen - and I'm British - loss is entirely different to risk
36 mins
  -> Yes, "loss" is entirely different to "risk", but somebody who works with "Risikobehebung" works with "loss control".
