Financial risk manager handbook

This dramatically enhanced second edition of the Handbook reflects our belief that a dynamically changing business environment requires a comprehensive text that provides an in-depth overview of the various disciplines associated with financial risk management. The Handbook has now evolved into the essential reference text for any risk professional, whether they are seeking FRM Certification or whether they simply have a desire to remain current on the subject of financial risk. For those using the FRM Handbook as a guide for the FRM Exam, each chapter includes questions from previous FRM exams. The questions are selected to provide systematic coverage of advanced FRM topics. The answers to the questions are explained by comprehensive tutorials. The FRM examination is designed to test risk professionals on a combination of basic analytical skills, general knowledge, and intuitive capability acquired through experience in capital markets. Its focus is on the core body of knowledge required for independent risk management analysis and decision-making. The exam has been administered every autumn since 1997 and has now expanded to 43 international testing sites.
