    Exam Feedback October 2020 Part 2 Exam Feedback

    agree with any one of you that the exam is tricky and tough, especially for those mini-case studies which we were given a scenario and being asked which is correct. It seems that the choice of options represent different concepts, probably not from the same topic. I am just curious to know how...

    2020 Exam Update from GARP (updated on a regular basis)

    I am not saying GARP has done nothing. What I mean is that they should demonstrate their professionalism, especially in this challenging time and for being a reputable institution. We could also imagine the exponentially increasing workload, but no excuse please.. we are also studying and...

    2020 Exam Update from GARP (updated on a regular basis)

    Another concern is what the passing score will be....the number of candidates sitting in the exam will be significantly less than usual, every candidate will be more representative to determine the passing score..... will this increase the volatility (variability?) of scores such that it is...

    2020 Exam Update from GARP (updated on a regular basis)

    I agree with you that staff members of GARP should have normal day off, even in today's situation. What I worry most, like many of the candidates, is another arrangement similar to the exam cancellation of HK in 2019 - saying everything would be fine but suddenly cancelled the exam 3 days before...

    2020 Exam Update from GARP (updated on a regular basis)

    So, HK candidates will be unable to attend the FRM Exam for a straight 3 times? should I continue my studies..

    COVID-19 Updates

    Just to express my dissatisfaction on the GARP. In November 2019, the agency already lagged behind the CFA Institute in canceling the exam in Hong Kong. Now it is gambling to host the May exam as scheduled again at the expense of candidates - who not only worried about the significant change of...

    OAS spread

    hi, on p.28 of the notes P2.T5. (Bruce Tuckman, Fixed income securities), it says if the market price assumes to be $3,613.25, which is $2.8 less than the calculated model price of $3,616, the OAS turns out to be 10 basis points. May I know how does this "10 basis points" come out? thanks...

    some concepts (2)

    Thx all of the above. Let me try to rephrase. -> use the same value of parameters when calculating variance and co variance -> consistency of variance and co variance -> w(transpose T)w => 0 -> variance-covariance matrix are positive-semidefinite. Kindly correct me if any. Thanks a lot.
