Sample Moments (FRM Part 1 2025 – Book 2 – Chapter 5)

Описание: Master the sample moments you’ll see on FRM Part 1 – Quantitative Analysis: mean, variance & standard deviation, skewness, kurtosis, quantiles/median, CLT, covariance, correlation, variance-covariance matrix, coskewness, and cokurtosis.
By the end, you’ll be able to:
• distinguish sample vs population moments
• choose unbiased estimators (incl. n–1)
• interpret dispersion, asymmetry, tails, and dependence
• apply CLT logic to sampling questions
