You will find lot of financial and economical models outside there. Those models will depends on the environmental information related to the domain the organization is creating the solution. Just to comment, this is one of the things where generative Ai could help mainly in the research of models if and only if you take care about the format of the prompts you will use for it. I did not try PMI´s Infinity for this matter but I think it could be a good option because, as far as I understood, it is "tunned" with information related to project/program/portfolio management.

Evaluating project risks from a financial perspective is critical to effective project management. To manage financial uncertainty, we leverage robust techniques such as Monte Carlo simulations, which model multiple potential outcomes based on variable inputs, providing a range of possible economic scenarios. This allows us to quantify the probability of different risks and their potential impact.
Additionally, sensitivity analysis is a powerful tool for pinpointing which project variables, such as cost fluctuations, schedule delays, or scope changes, have the most significant financial impact. This allows for a targeted approach to risk mitigation, focusing on high-impact areas. Another key strategy is implementing contingency reserves, proactively setting aside a portion of the budget for unforeseen risks. By incorporating these methods, we manage financial risks proactively, maintaining economic stability and supporting successful project outcomes.
