Interview preparation: Market Risk Manager in Asia

August 6th, 2009, 8:21 pm

This is a market risk manager role, not a quant role. The job description does not specify the asset class(es) to be covered, although I guess the firm's major exposure would be in Equity and FX. What kind of questions should I expect from such an interview? As I mainly possess a quant background, how should I prepare for it?
