Re: Although it won't increase bank revenues to upgrade the operating syst [#permalink]
I too will go with B on this one.

E makes a wrong comparison.

"revenue above today" should rightly be "revenue above today's (revenue-implied)".

Regards,
Dom.

Explanation from GMAT FREE, the source

Creating a filter: in the original sentence, we have two conversational uses of the pronoun "it" that have no actual reference. Both must go, and (A) is out. We'll seek to eliminate other answer choices with the same problem.

Applying the filter: choices (C) and (D) have the same problem as (A), so those two are out. Choice (B) has no clear defect, so we can come back to it. Choice (E) communicates the intended meaning less clearly. We've lost the meaning of where the risks come from. Risks involved in what? Therefore, (E) is inferior to (B).
The correct answer is (B).
