PRMIA awards Mukul Pareek 2009 PRM Candidate of the Year
PRMIA has named Mukul Pareek, a Consultant at Goldman Sachs, the 2009 PRM Candidate of the Year. Mukul was presented the award in New York by Executive Director of PRMIA, Steve Lindo.
The Professional Risk Manager (PRM™) designation program is the global standard for the world's top financial risk professionals. The PRM Candidate of the Year award program annually recognizes top PRM candidates from around the world. There are four awards given -- the prestigious PRM Candidate of the Year award, the other finalists for the top award, the Award of Merit for those whose exam scores across multiple exams distinguish them from the rest of the candidates, and the PRM Focus Award for candidates who have achieved the highest score of the year on the four individual exams of the PRM designation program.
“The entire award committee was very impressed by Mukul, and we congratulate him on this achievement,” says David Millar, PRMIA Chief Operating Officer. “He excelled on his exam results, written essay and interview, and proved that he is deserving of this prestigious award.”
Mukul Pareek says, “I am honored to have been chosen for this award. Preparing for the certification exams provided me with two invaluable benefits: firstly, a conceptual understanding of markets, risk, reward and regulation that any market professional needs in a dynamic business environment, and secondly, an understanding of the tools to immediately apply the theory, whether in the form of over a dozen detailed case studies, or spreadsheet based modeling for the kind of issues asset managers and risk professionals have to deal with each day.”
He adds, “If one is really interested in enhancing one's knowledge of the contemporary thinking on risk beyond the superficial, the PRM certification provides a very well structured route to do so. The self-contained course material is head and shoulders above anything else I could compare it to.”
