Examination GuideE67 – Examination element of M67 Fundamentals of riskmanagementBased on the 2017/2018 syllabus examined from 1 May 2017 until 30 April 2018IntroductionThis examination guide has been produced by the Examinations Department at the Chartered InsuranceInstitute (CII) to assist students in their preparation for the E67 examination. It contains a specimenexamination with answer key.Ideally, students should have completed the majority of their E67 studies before attempting thespecimen examination. Students should allow themselves one hour to complete the examination.They should then review their performance to identify areas of weakness on which to concentrate theremainder of their study time. The examination must be successfully passed within 18 months ofenrolment on M67.Although the specimen examination in this guide is typical of an E67 examination, it should be notedthat it is not possible to test every single aspect of the syllabus in any one particular examination. Toprepare properly for the examination, candidates should make full use of the tuition options availableand read as widely as possible to ensure that the whole syllabus has been covered. They should alsoendeavour to keep as up-to-date as possible with developments in the industry by reading theperiodicals listed in the M67 reading list, which is located on the syllabus in this examination guide andon the CII website at www.cii.co.uk.Background InformationCII examination questions undergo a rigorous writing and editing process before reaching anexamination. The questions are written to strict guidelines by practitioners with relevant technicalknowledge and experience. Questions are very carefully worded to ensure that all the informationrequired to answer the question is provided in a clear and concise manner. They are then edited by anindependent panel of experienced practitioners who have been specifically trained to ensure thatquestions are technically correct, clear and unambiguous. As a final check, each examination isscrutinised by the Senior Examiner and a CII assessment expert.Occasionally a question will require amendment after the examination guide is first published. In suchan event, the revised question will be published on the CII website:1) Visit www.cii.co.uk/qualifications2) Select the appropriate qualification3) Select your unit on the right hand side of the pageCandidates should also refer here for the latest information on changes to law and practice and whenthey will be examined.E67 Examination Guide 2017/20183

Examination GuideSyllabusThe M67 syllabus is published on the CII website at www.cii.co.uk. Candidates should note that theexamination is based on the syllabus, rather than on any particular tuition material. Of course, the CIItuition material will provide the vast majority of the information required to perform well in theexamination, but the CII recommends that students consult other reference materials to supplementtheir studies.Skill SpecificationThe examination syllabus categorises M67 learning outcomes into attainment levels. Each learningoutcome specifies the level of skill required of candidates and thus the level at which candidates maybe tested.The syllabus requires that candidates have the ability to understand the subject matter. Each learningoutcome begins with the following cognitive skill:Understanding - Candidates must be able to link pieces of information together in cause and effectrelationships. Typically questions may ask ‘Why’. Questions set on an understand learning outcomecan test either knowledge or understanding or both.E67 Examination Guide 2017/20184

Examination GuideExamination InformationThe method of assessment for the E67 examination is 50 multiple choice questions (MCQs). One houris allowed for this examination.The M67 syllabus provided in this examination guide will be examined from 1 May 2017 until 30 April2018.Candidates will be examined on the basis of English law and practice unless otherwise stated.The general rule is that legislative and industry changes will not be examined earlier than 3 monthsafter they come into effect.E67 examinations test the Financial Conduct Authority and Prudential Regulation Authority rules andregulations.When preparing for the examination, candidates should ensure that they are aware of what typicallyconstitutes each type of product listed in the syllabus and ascertain whether the products with whichthey come into contact during the normal course of their work deviate from the norm, since questionsin the examination test generic product knowledge.A multiple choice question consists of a problem followed by four options, labelled A, B, C and D, fromwhich the candidate is asked to choose the correct response. Each question will contain only onecorrect or best response to the problem posed.One mark is awarded for each correct response identified by the candidate. No mark is awarded if thecandidate either chooses an incorrect response, chooses more than one response or fails to choose anyresponse. No marks are deducted for candidates choosing an incorrect response.If you bring a calculator into the examination room, it must be a silent battery or solar-powerednon-programmable calculator. The use of electronic equipment capable of being programmed to holdalphabetic or numerical data and/or formulae is prohibited. You may use a financial or scientificcalculator, provided it meets these requirements.Candidates are permitted to make rough notes. Candidates are not permitted, in any circumstances, toremove any papers relating to the examination from the examination room.E67 Examination Guide 2017/20185

Examination GuideExamination Technique: Multiple Choice QuestionsThe best approach to multiple choice examinations is to work methodically through the questions.The questions are worded very carefully to ensure that all the information required is presented in aconcise and clear manner. It cannot be emphasised too strongly that understanding the precisemeaning of the question is vital. If candidates miss a crucial point when reading the question it couldresult in choosing the wrong option. Candidates should read carefully through the question and all theoptions before attempting to answer.Candidates should pay particular attention to any words in the question which are emphasised in boldtype, for example, maximum, minimum, main, most, normally and usually. Negative wording isfurther emphasised by the use of capital letters, for example NOT, CANNOT.Candidates should not spend too much time on any one question. If they cannot make up their mind,they should leave the question and come back to it later.When all of the questions have been answered, it is prudent to use any remaining time to go througheach question again, carefully, to double-check that nothing has been missed. Altering just oneincorrect response to a correct response could make the difference between passing and failing.After the ExaminationRigorous checks are made to ensure the correctness of the results issued. A pre-defined quota ofpasses to be awarded does not exist. If all candidates achieve a score of at least the pass mark, then allcandidates will be awarded a pass grade. Individual feedback on the candidate’s examinationperformance is automatically provided and will indicate the result achieved and, for each syllabuslearning outcome, the percentage of questions in the examination that were answered correctly.E67 Examination Guide 2017/20186
