Are you a qualified risk manager?
Whether you consider yourself to be a qualified risk manager (QRM) can often depend on how you perceive your training and work experience, as well as formal and continuing education. Employers may also have their own view as to what constitutes a QRM. As you might expect, the subjective nature of life experiences and education can make comparisons difficult, but thanks to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act), risk managers now, for the first time, have a yard stick to assess their qualifications.
