Global Association of Risk Professionals
Global Association of Risk Professionals (GARP) is a not-for-profit organization and a membership association for risk managers. Its services include setting standards, training, education, industry networking, and promoting risk management practices. Founded in 1996 and headquartered in Jersey City, New Jersey, with additional offices in London, Washington, D.C., Beijing, and Hong Kong. GARP offers several foundational and certificate programs, the best known of which is the Financial Risk Manager (FRM) certification.
GARP also runs initiatives such as the GARP Risk Institute (GRI) Archived 2021-07-09 at the Wayback Machine and GARP Benchmarking Initiative (GBI) Archived 2021-07-09 at the Wayback Machine for research and thought leadership efforts within the risk purview.
GARP was founded in 1996 by Marc Lore and Lev Borodovsky, two risk managers. They had been meeting once a week at a New York pub to talk about their chosen field with other risk colleagues and decided that a more formal organization would benefit other risk professionals. About six months later, they had 250 members from 23 countries. Before long, local chapters from around the world had been established by regional directors, offering programs for local members.
In 1997, a year after they founded GARP, Lore and Borodovsky introduced the Financial Risk Manager (FRM) certification.
According to GARP, as of 2021, it has 279,000 members in more than 195 countries and regions.
In the early 2000s GARP published GARP Risk Review distributed by subscription to members six times a year.
GARP has not released an annual report since 2021.
The Financial Risk Manager (FRM) is a Master's degree equivalent professional designation issued by GARP. The FRM is well regarded, one of the flagship certifications for financial risk professionals, along with the PRM offered by the Professional Risk Managers' International Association. FRMs possess specialized knowledge in assessing and managing risk, and typically work for major banks, insurance companies, accounting firms, regulatory agencies, and asset management firms. Certificants are in more than 190 countries and territories worldwide, and have taken an average of two years to earn their Certification.
