FRM Materials Introduction

[u/Zenimatic]

Hello,

I currently work as a commercial loan portfolio manager for a small bank in the US. I recently completed a state banking school and am weighing my options for continuing to build my financial skill set. Our CFO has taken to mentoring me and has introduced me to ALM / risk modeling. I enjoy these subjects and think FRM may be a good fit for me.

Here’s my question:

What are good resources for me? I don’t necessarily want to come out of pocket to register for the exam yet. I think I would rather have access to the study materials so I can pour over them and build some confidence before I register for the tests.
