Foundations of

Financial Risk
An introduction to key concepts
in financial risk management
Risk is at the core of nearly every aspect of the financial markets. To succeed, everyone from the back
office to the trading room floor must understand the fundamental concepts of financial risk. In response,
GARP created Foundations of Financial Risk, a comprehensive, self-study course.

The course gives a broad overview of key risk-related topics such as credit, market, operational risk,
insurance risk, and the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision’s regulatory principles (Basel Accords).
In addition, the course pays special attention to the ways in which financial institutions operate, as well as
the impact of international regulations. Written by risk professionals, this course is designed for anyone
starting their career in banking or finance.
