Hi Fellow Nairalanders, There is this professional exam call FRM(Financial Risk Manager) organised by Global Association of Risk Professionals (GARPS). Am about register for the exam but my problem is that i dont know where or who to receive lecture from and i need someone to lead me. please i need someone with useful information on where to receive lecture and where to get useful material from for the exam. Although the exam is not that popular in Nigeria, i know there will still be people with information. ANYTHING INFORMATION IS WELCOME. Thanks. |

Hello all. How have u been? Hope u guys were successful in registering and writing the exams. I am considering registering too, please can you put me through? Thanks. |
Re: Financial Risk Manager (very Urgent) by RixExpat: 5:47pm On Apr 21, 2012 |
You can just check their websites: GARP - http://www.garp.org/frm/frm-program.aspx PRMIA - http://www.prmia.org/ for registration details. Normally, you will need a credit card to register though you can write to them if you don't have a credit card, you can also pay by wire transfer but with additional charges. As regards preparation for the exams, I will recommend "Risk Prep" - http://www.riskprep.com/ for PRM as I found them very useful and cost effective as well (I have the PRM already). From my detailed research, for FRM,I will recommend "Bionic Turtle" - http://www.bionicturtle.com/ (I will be writing the FRM in November as I am currently preparing for the CFA exams in June. Globally, these are the two most respected exams in Risk Management and Nigeria should not be an exception as finance and banking in Nigeria is well advanced and I have seen a couple of jobs requiring these certifications in Nigeria(though the CFA is more popular everywhere for those in investment management/research). Lastly, you've got to have a good/strong quantitative background, else you will find the FRM/PRM exams a bit distressing. Wish you all the best. |

firstonajobi: Can someone help with details of where I could get GARP reading materials (book) in Lagos? I will appreaciate this greatly. Make sure you are using the most updated materials as GARP updates the reading materials every year. Alternatively, you can buy from GARP website: http://www.garp.org/frm/study-center/study-materials.aspx Or you may consider to use a third party provider like Scweser. Personally, I used both in addition to Bionic turtle which is renown for very excellent practice exams. |

Hi fellow candidates: Proposing a bb group where we can begin discussion, we will then plan periodic group discussion maybe once in two weeks. If you are in, join the group on 28BF1E86. We will also share materials. I am using the Schweser notes at the moment. Cheers |

Re: Financial Risk Manager (very Urgent) by homebase(m): 11:26am On Jul 15, 2013 |
I read somewhere online that Elan materials are better than Schweser. On the thread most people are giving credence to Elan prep videos. By the i love the analysis i read about CFA vf MBA i read on this site http://cfaplanet.com . you check it out. |
Re: Financial Risk Manager (very Urgent) by joichi: 12:08pm On Jul 18, 2013 |
Hi. Just sent you a request on bbm. Had to take out my contact cos i was getting rily weird mails from some quarters. I currently use the bionic turtle product and the FRM advised books. Guess we can continue on bbm though. Also, as a gentle reminder to fellow candidates, the final date for early registration for the November 2013 diet is on 31st July 2013, next week friday. If we are in on this, please lets create a wider forum to accommodate us all with our different challenges (work schedule, distance from others and the likes). globechamp: |
Re: Financial Risk Manager (very Urgent) by RixExpat: 8:48am On Oct 11, 2013 |
Hello FRM Candidates, I want to have an idea about the number of candidates preparing for the FRM Exam as I am planning to start an FRM tutorial center here in Lagos. If the number is reasonable, I will approach some other high profile individuals and prospective tutors who are also certified FRMs and some of whom are also CFA charter holders so we can commence an FRM tutorial center in Lagos. Lectures may not commence before the next 2013 November exam considering the logistics that need to be put in place but we can provide mentoring for those who may need that for the November exam. Regards. |

RixExpat: Hello FRM Candidates, Hi Sir, I am planning on writing the PRM exam 1 very soon and I don't know if it's a good idea to order the prep material from PRMIA website and prepare first before applying to write the exam? I would really appreciate your advice. Thanks |
Re: Financial Risk Manager (very Urgent) by Nobody: 5:18am On Oct 14, 2013 |
Adonis4u: It is best you buy the PRMIA handbook for all the Exams. the handbook is self explanatory and is co-authored by risk professionals and academics. You can also buy riskprep's access to its question Bank for exam 1 or kesdee's question bank.. All the best. |
