... The topics are reviewed yearly to ensure the FRM exam is kept timely and relevant. FRM Examination Approach The FRM exam is a practice‐oriented examination. Its questions are derived from a combination of theory, as set forth in the readings, and “real‐world” work experience. Candidates are expected to understand risk management concepts and approaches and how they would apply to a risk manager’s day‐to‐day activities. The FRM examination is also a comprehensive examination, testing a risk professional on a number of risk management concepts and approaches. It is very rare that a risk manager will be faced with an issue that can immediately be slotted into one category. In the real world, a risk manager must be able to identify any number of risk‐related issues and be able to deal with them effectively. Readings Questions for the FRM examination are derived from the readings listed under each topic outline. These readings were selected by the FRM Committee to assist candidates in their review of the subjects covered by the exam. It is strongly suggested that candidates review these readings in depth prior to sitting for the exam. The Financial Risk Manager Handbook, 4th edition, by Philippe Jorion (New York: Wiley & Sons, 2007), covers most of the FRM examination topics at the appropriate level. However, please note that the FRM Handbook was designed to help candidates review the material and is not a textbook. Alone, the FRM Handbook is not sufficient to prepare a ...

...Class of: 2013 Course Title: Financial Risk Management (FRM) Semester: III Credits: 3 Course Objective & Learning Outcome: This course gives students a working knowledge of derivative instruments and their applications in managing various types of financial risks. While doing so, students would understand the organizational aspects of those risk functions and their roles & responsibilities.

Cases discussed in the class would be contemporary in nature drawn from international experience. Pre-requisites: Students are advised to be through with Financial Management I, Financial Management II and Quantitative Methods. Students are expected to go through all the reading prescribed before every class and make a meaningful contribution through active class participation.
