Welcome to the RMA Chicago Chapter

The RMA Chicago Chapter is organized and run by volunteer members.  The Chapter provides opportunities in their local communities for education, training, and networking throughout all stages of their financial services career. 

The Risk Management Association (RMA) is a not-for-profit, member-driven professional association serving the financial services industry. Its sole purpose is to advance the use of sound risk management principles in the financial services industry. RMA promotes an enterprise approach to risk management that focuses on credit risk, market risk, operational risk, securities lending, and regulatory issues.  To find out more about our parent organization, visit www.rmahq.org .

RMA welcomes all personnel involved in lending and risk management in member organizations to become RMA Associates.  We strongly encourage current or prospective members to become involved in shaping the future direction of the chapter by contacting any of the current officers or committee chairs. We would also be happy to discuss the many benefits that can be derived from membership in RMA.
