After the FRM Handbook: What Actually Stuck

Book: Financial Risk Manager Handbook Plus Test Bank
Author: Philippe Jorion
ISBN: 978-0-470-90401-5


That is the full arc. Thirty chapters, one intro, and a test bank bolted on the back. Philippe Jorion’s sixth edition was written for GARP’s FRM exam and published in 2010. I read it cover to cover for this series. Here is what actually stuck and what did not age as well.

Reading the FRM Handbook: Why This Book Still Matters

Book: Financial Risk Manager Handbook Plus Test Bank
Author: Philippe Jorion
ISBN: 978-0-470-90401-5

I picked up Philippe Jorion’s Financial Risk Manager Handbook because I wanted one serious reference that could carry me from exam prep to actual desk work. This is not a light read. It is a full textbook, written with GARP for the FRM exam, and it shows on every page. That is exactly why I am working through it chapter by chapter in this series.
