Description: In this “nontraditional” general session from the 1991 Annual Meeting of the Society of Actuaries, held October 20-23 in Toronto, the panelists, a “judge,” a “defendant,” and a “prosecutor” present a humorous “trial” to explore what the boundaries of “traditional” actuarial work are. A theme of the session is that some of what we call “nontraditional” is an expansion of traditional actuarial work, and that we owe it to our public to broaden our horizons. Discussion from participants is included. From the Record of Society of Actuaries, Volume 17, No. 4A.

Another topic of discussion is the Society of Actuaries’ ‘Professional Actuarial Specialty Guides’ and the committee that has done a tremendous amount of work in putting them together.

Description: The degree of interaction between actuaries and lawyers practicing in the pension area has increased significantly in recent years. On the one hand, plan sponsors may gain from this interaction, as members of the two professions bring different perspectives and different sets of skills to bear on their problems. On the other hand, there may be friction in situations where the roles of the actuary and the lawyer overlap. This panel discussion focuses on the various ways in which actuaries and lawyers interact, and suggests ways to minimize the friction between them.
