CRISC vs M_o_R

ah.gazar

Hi all, I am trying to decide which risk management certification I should study and sit the related exam, I have the following options:
- CRISC by ISACA
- M_o_R by AXELOS

Unfortunately, due to time constraints, I will be pursuing only one of these two.
So, I need your advice, which one is more beneficial in terms of risk management knowledge and market demand.

Thanks

CRISC, ISACA is well known and CRISC compliments their other certifications. CRISC is better known of the two, run a search on indeed on each certification and see which one gets the most hits. For the record, I am CRISC certified and have a significant background in Risk management, and I had to google the other cert because I had never heard of it.

Also - Market demand is largely going to depend on locality. Axelos is well respected in the UK (especially for their Prince2 project management) but largely unknown in the US. In the US, ISACA is well known in Risk and Security but most people will be not be familiar with Axelos.
