FRM - to do or not to do

Hey guys - I look after a credit portfolio and pursuing the CAIA program (writing L2 this year - fingers crossed). In addition to deal sourcing, screening and deal execution, I also look after the tracking and monitoring the investee companies financial information shared with us quarterly and look for early warning signals of stress.

Little math is involved beyond basic excel, some charts, pivots and Vlookups - which works great for us too. 

So looking to know if doing FRM will help to understand how to track risk better?

Any guys who have done FRM in similar profiles - please PM. Would love to engage more on this.
