  2. Risk Management

Each module will be assessed by one three hour examination, and one project

Paper DB1
The exam will cover both topics - 'Financial Strategy' and 'Risk Management'. The structure of the exam for Module B will be as follows:

  • Section A : 20 multiple choice questions of 2 marks each - 10 covering subject area 1 and 10 covering subject area 2
  • Section B : 3 written questions of 20 marks each - covering subject area 1
  • Section C : 3 written questions of 20 marks each - covering subject area 2

Candidates will be required to attempt all questions in Section A, one question from Section B, one question from Section C and one final question from either Section B or Section C.
