For Quant Risk - People of Engineering Background, Statistics, Economics(Econometrics to be precise) will have the most benefits

For Market Risk - People of MBA Finance who are already done with Hull, will have the maximum benefits.

Rest of the course will be on similar lines for all.

Since you already work in Treasury and Financial Control functions, you may be familiar with many of the concepts required in the exam.

Starting in July will be a bit late, To gauge yourself - You can start off reading Hull and Jorion - FRM Handbook. If you find all these comfortable, the you are fit for the exam.

cheers,

Shyam
Hey shyam,

Really appreciate your help.

Cheers

So lets wait for a few more days. I will keep you all updated on the same

Hi Mansoor, Welcome to PG and specially FRM Thread
I would only like to suggest that its good that you took this initiative to clarify certain points officially, but I guess it will be much better if you can also get acknowledgment for all this from PagalGuy Head quarters, Mumbai
Try messaging (personnal, PM)your number and relevant information to Apurv or estranged_gnrs as mostly all activities involving coaching/marketing are routed through head quarters only.
And meanwhile please remove your cell phone number by editing your posts as you can see PG is a highly moderated forum and thats its major USP too.

Once Again
Andy

To clear out a little confusion about core reading availability i would like to tell u that i have bought set of core readings from Laxmi Xerox in Mumbai and not a single page is missing as Mansoor said earlier in this threaad but Laxmi is still to deliver me one last book and he said he will do it in a week.
mansoor i hope that u guys stick to ur words and i recieve my last book i.e book 5 soon.

Also, Shyam and Girish i am still in for scheweser pool..

Seems like he has solved our problem of Core Readings. He has managed to collect all the Materials of Core Readings(Including Gujarati)

Will go to the shop in a day or two and check out the Notes firsthand.

Will also explain to him the Missing Notes of Schweser Essential Solutions.

If things workout properly, we can directly buy Notes from Laxmi Xerox.

cheers,

Shyam
