The company currently has members from over 100 UK,  Irish and international institutions. It continues to expand further into Europe with well developed links with AFGAP, a similar body in France.

The company’s primary aims are to provide education and promote awareness of asset and liability risk management issues. It does this through a series of courses, conferences and evening events. At these events, ALMA seeks to promote and share best practice in related risk management techniques and approaches. ALMA provides a deliberately informal forum in which risk management professionals can network and discuss the issues facing the industry and their responses to these challenges. ALMA has fostered a culture of candour and openness to share views on areas as diverse as risk systems strategy, structuring of balance sheets to manage liquidity, credit and capital, experience in e-commerce and strategic business direction.
