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.

The Number of people that attempt FRM in Lagos is few. but with 2014 in view, i believe the numbers will go up a bit.

For both CFA and FRm materials 2014 call 08025822587.

Best of Luck to Nov Frm Candidates, and Dec CFA Candidates

Hi...

There are no exemptions in CFA. you will write the three (3) levels.

Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) is not really a separate field in risk management. It is simply an approach to risk management where we look at the risk facing a firm from the top down (you can call it a top-down approach) as against a bottom-up approach that considers the various categories of risks such as market, credit, operational risks, etc in silos. ERM is akin to risk from a portfolio or enterprise perspective (the totality of risks a firm is facing) where we consider the correlations and cross correlations between the various risk categories. Both approaches have their strengths and limitations and are covered in the two most popular risk certifications (FRM and PRM), so you do not need any form of special training in ERM. What you need is a risk management training.

Naa... i meant Energy Risk management man!
I know all about the FRM and PRM...it's Energy Risk that i had in mind.....

I see what you mean. I think GARP awards the Energy Risk Professional (GRP) designation but that is not our area of focus now. We believe as that certification gains popularity, holders should be able to start a tutorial. The best you can do currently is to go on self study which is the common thing. There are no useful information on Schweser and Bionic Turtle websites as regards the ERP, so you might need to do self study.

I'm a recent Unibadan Mathematics graduate presently serving in Abuja. I guess CFA means Certified Financial Analyst, but I was contemplating doing ICAN or ACCA as I have probably not seen any job advert that requires a CFA, please enlighten me guys.

You are right. The lecture centers are a bit pricey. I guess will just study on my own. Don't have any video yet. Still looking around.
