    Exam Feedback May 2021 Part 2 Exam Feedback

    I could not agree more to the above... In my opinion: (i) clustered areas (I missed a little bit "financial risk" (i.e. market, credit, liquidity and investment risk) but can recall having an overall focus on ORR and CI); (ii) strong focus on qualitative aspects (the few quant questions were...

    FRM Fun 13: Absolute versus relative VaR versus UL

    Hi all, In P2.T9 Jorion's Ch 7 & 17 "Value at Risk: the new benchmark for managing financial risk": - I guess there we are talking about absolute VaR when dealing with individual VaR, etc?; and - the drift (i.e. mean) is assumed to be zero throughout the full chapter? Thanks -Ivan

    Swap Rates

    Hi Probably late and irrelevant but I'll give it a try anyway (actually I'm searching something different in the forum): I think you can apply David's approach from P1.T4.902.2 so that d(0.5) = 100.325/100 = 0.99676 and than bootstrapp d(1) and the remaining DFs by setting the price to 100. The...

    YouTube T4-01: Three approaches to value at risk (VaR) and volatility

    Hi David Great video! I guess the delta-normal approach (as described in ch2 P1.T4 "calculating and applying VaR") would fall under the parametric classification as a non-linear model? I was struggling to combine the various wordings placed between ch 1 to 3 (VaR and Volatiliy) till I saw the...

    2019/2020 Curriculum Change Analysis Spreadsheets

    Hi all It is possible to work through the LO's with the current available BT scripts and exercises - just requires a bit flexibility and cross-referencing to the free GARP ebooks (from time to time)- content wise, things did not significatly change (at least as I can perceive it..).
