About GARP Membership

GARP Membership has developed around a culture of best practice shared by its FRMs,
ERPs, sta, and a global community of tens of thousands of professionals and practitioners
committed to nancial and energy risk management. In this time of constant change, a
thorough understanding of risk is essential to good business management, and those who
possess it will always have a clear advantage.

Being part of GARPs risk-focused community means having access to expert knowledge
and global networking opportunities not available anywhere elsethe benet of GARPs
deep connectivity with industry and academia.

By supporting this community through its membership oerings, GARP fullls its mission
of promoting best practice and creating a culture of risk awareness. By choosing GARP
Membership, you secure a professional advantage that will serve you, your employer, and
your profession throughout your career.

GARP CodE oF ConduCT

The GARP Code of Conduct (Code) sets forth principles of professional conduct for the Global Association
of Risk Professionals ("GARP"), Financial Risk Management (FRM) and Energy Risk Professional (ERP)
certifications and other GARP certification and diploma holders and candidates, GARP's Board of Trustees,
its Regional Directors, GARP Committee Members and GARP's staff (hereinafter collectively referred to as
"GARP Members") in support of the advancement of the financial risk management profession. These principles promote the highest levels of ethical conduct and disclosure and provide direction and support for both the
individual practitioner and the risk management profession.

The pursuit of high ethical standards goes beyond following the letter of applicable rules and regulations and
behaving in accordance with the intentions of those laws and regulations, it is about pursuing a universal
ethical culture. There is no single prescriptive ethical standard that can be globally applied. We can only
expect that GARP Members will continuously consider ethical issues and adjust their conduct accordingly
as they engage in their daily activities.

The GARP Code of Conduct makes references to professional standards and generally accepted risk management practices. Risk practitioners should understand these as concepts that reflect an evolving shared body
of professional standards and practices. In considering the issues this raises, ethical behavior must weigh the
circumstances and the culture of the applicable global community in which the practitioner resides.

subscription will be set to expire with your Membership, and the bookstore fee will be pro-rated. When purchased as part of
your renewal, your bookstore access will be aligned to expire at the same time as your membership, and the bookstore fee
will be pro-rated accordingly. Bookstore access is pro-rated on a monthly basis. Whether you subscribed on the 1st, 15th, or
30th of the month, you will be charged for the full month. Please bear this in mind when making your purchasing decision.
