Description: 1999 SOA Regional Meeting, Atlanta. In this session on data and interoperability standards for actuaries, the panel discusses the importance of open data standards which enable communication and transmission of data between different systems developed by different vendors. They also discuss the attached white paper entitled 'Proposed Data Standards for Table Data in the Insurance and Pension Industries' which was written by the Computer Science Section of the SOA to encourage adoption of the described standard.

Description: Enabling better care, mood management and even slowing and reversing memory loss for Alzheimer's and dementia care.

Description: While it is now almost universally accepted that data can bring value to the insurance industry, there is little guidance on exactly how to make that value tangible. This session goes beyond advances in computing and storage technologies and is aimed directly at business leaders. This session will define what a data strategy is, discuss the main components, describe how to get started creating one, and will outline how to translate a strategy into execution.

Description: Companies with the intention of being the top, trusted source(s) in an information overloaded world.

Description: 1999 SOA Annual Meeting, San Francisco. Presenters discussed ways in which nontraditional methods of distributing insurance products are continuing to evolve and offered their views on where that evolution may lead for the industry.

Description: Since the international financial crisis, accounting standards have become an important part of financial supervision rules, which objectively requires us to study the reform and development of accounting standards from the perspective of financial stability. Since the release of IFRS17 in 2017, the research and discussion of IFRS17 in the insurance industry has focused on technical details and implementation, while the economic impact and pros and cons analysis of IFRS17 are few. As a result, the industry's understanding of IFRS17 is not comprehensive enough, and there are still many disputes, and no industry consensus has been formed. In the future, the insurance industry should strengthen the research and analysis of IFRS17 from the perspective of financial stability, deepen the understanding and cognition of IFRS17, and improve the ability to control and use IFRS17.

Description: This discussion looks at the approach for applying electronic computers to the operating practices of a company.

Description: The session will feature case study discussion of how insurers can improve their model architecture and data visualization to prepare for the increasing demands of the future. Actuarial data and analysis has long been limited by the complexity and diversity of historical systems. External pressure on insurers is higher than ever before, as new requirements take effect under PBR, GAAP Targeted Improvements, and IFRS17.

Description: 1994 SOA Spring Meeting, Orlando. This session is about re-engineering large actuarial systems. Large actuarial systems have become drains on human, computing and financial resources. And in some cases, daily actuarial functions have grown beyond the scope of normal cost-containment techniques. Re-engineering actuarial systems can significantly alter the trend.
