Is Current Issues in Financial Markets still a topic in 2024?

[AUola2165]

Hello,

Apologizes for a possibly stupid question, but is "Current Issues in Financial Markets" still a topic in FRM Part 2 exams in year 2024?
I can't find material from GARP that would discuss these topics, or any topic for that matter:





EDIT:
Found the answer, it still is:

Required Readings | Financial Risk Manager (FRM) | GARP

In addition to the information contained in the books, these online readings are a required part of the FRM curriculum.

@AUola2165 I see that you found the answer, but I wanted to make a note here that we are always happy to help answer customer questions, but the GARP website has answers for questions like this. They've provided a full page on their website with the study guide and the information on the current issues readings here: https://www.garp.org/frm/study-materials.

Hello @Nicole Seaman

Hope you are doing well ?

Just a follow up to @AUola2165 's question: is the team planning to have any instructional videos / practice questions uploaded for Current Issues ?

Also, can you suggest a smart way / approach to tackle Current Issues (considering we have 5 days remaining for the exam) ?

Thank you for your support (as always).

Hello @Azim Merchant No, we do not provide instructional videos for the Current Issues topic. We must prioritize other topics that hold more weight on the exam and cover more difficult concepts. Other candidates may have helpful suggestions on study tips for current issues.
