The SOA Canadian Research Committee is therefore seeking research proposals that will help advance the practice of ERM in Canada, and push the boundaries of ERM beyond its traditional applications.

This consultation document concentrates on the consideration of corporate governance and risk management focus within the SMI. Because of the relationship between risk management and internal capital assessment, high-level issues surrounding the implementation of an Own Risk and Solvency Assessment are also explored in this paper. Additionally, two appendixes have been attached to this document outlining International Association of Insurance Supervisors principles and standards in areas relating to corporate governance and risk management that may warrant consideration.

The Committee on Finance Research is pleased to make available a research report summarizing the results of a survey exploring market risk practices at insurance companies.

Here are two presentations from the 2010 ERM Symposium 4/12-4/15/2010 Concurrent Sessions. Recent events have shown the importance of identifying emerging risks as early as possible. Panelists will present the annual emerging risk project completed by the SOA/CAS/CIA Joint Risk Management Section along with ways companies are strategically managing emerging risks to gain competitive advantage. Tools such as Delphi techniques, expert opinion, risk maps, and simulations will be described.

This session will focus on the techniques around measuring risk as defined within a company. The session will demonstrate various techniques concerning internal risk measurement (i.e. economic capital), projection systems, aggregation tools, curve fitting and/or portfolio replication, efficiency techniques and the incorporation of ESGs. From the 2012 SOA Annual Meeting.

This session will contain discussions on potential risks that may be emerging, and how to identify these risks and understand them. The discussion will include how to triage the identified emerging risks based on what would have a material impact on an organization. This session will leverage the emerging risk survey published earlier in the year by the Joint Risk Management Section. From the 2012 SOA Annual Meeting.
