KPMG China offers a broad ranging financial risk management (FRM) service.  We help banks, insurance companies, asset managers and corporate and public clients identify, assess, manage, report and limit the risks they face.

Global concerns about financial risk have been increasing in the light of growing volatility and uncertainty in global financial markets.  In this climate, enterprises of all kinds and sizes want robust financial risk management frameworks that satisfy compliance demands, contribute to better decision making, enhance performance and help maintain the enterprise’s good reputation.  KPMG China’s FRM professionals work with financial institutions and other corporate and public clients to attain these objectives.
