Description: Actuarial modeling has gone through several distinct phases largely defined by the underlying technology platform. Today, cloud computing is again redefining the technology foundations of actuarial modeling and related processes.

Description: Supporting mathematical basis for adjusting mortality risk by applying epigenetic age acceleration measures

Description: Reunite with members and non-members in the China actuarial community to discuss recent topics and related issues in areas such as macroeconomic sharing, IFRS 17, product strategy, cross-border communication and discussion, and more. Advance your career through learning and networking opportunities, and share your experiences in the finance and insurance industries, as well as other fields related to actuarial science.

Description: An overview of how the actuary's role will evolve as technology improves.

Description: The Society of Actuaries (SOA) sought to investigate methodologies and characteristics associated with actuarial innovation, aiming to expand the industry’s capabilities for creativity. The SOA engaged Milliman to conduct in-depth interviews and focus groups with select actuaries who have demonstrated innovative skills, in order to derive key behaviors and characteristics that encourage innovation.

Description: Dr. Kimberly Harden helps organizations shift from a traditional diversity model to one that emphasizes diversity, interpersonal communication, and talent management. She will discuss topics on bias and how to be your authentic self in the workplace.

Description: This research study aims to understand the current and planned use of various technology types and tools and to highlight those technologies that are anticipated to grow the fastest among actuaries in 2019.

Description: Innovation in technology has disrupted nearly every industry, creating mounting internal and external pressures on organizations to accelerate the adoption of their digital agendas. The COVID-19 pandemic further brought to light the need for tools and technology to be adaptable, powerful, and scalable. As the insurance industry leaps into the future, actuaries must not only proactively refine their roles and responsibilities within insurance organizations but also seek opportunities for improvements and optimization in their day-to-day work. Discuss a variety of opportunities to streamline, accelerate, and optimize actuarial processes by using modern technology. Cover a wide spectrum of actuarial solutions from automation of actuarial data transformation to actuarial reserve calculations and calibration of economic scenarios. By attending the session, you will: Be able to articulate how modern low-code/no-code technology can help actuaries automate, streamline and optimize processes in yourday to day work tohelp focus on higher value tasks.

Description: Letter from the new chairman of the Technology Section Council introducing the new council members.

Description: Over the last two years, we experimented with online peer assessment platforms in undergraduate courses and saw them deliver major learning advantages and be highly popular with students. We explain why peer assessment shows great promise for actuarial science education and the main factors to consider when designing peer assessment activities. We also detail our use of online platforms in two undergraduate courses. By sharing our experience, we hope to provide you, our fellow educators, with a solid starting point for experimenting with this format.
