Description: Pricing is a central activity of actuaries to assure solvency and to manage risk. Life insurance is also a social good, not just a product, and the US population is massively underinsured. Pricing must strike a balance. Unlike a simple 4x4 matrix to produce pricing, today's technology offers the ability to evaluate literally thousands of variables, enabling a kind of precision pricing. It also heightens the possibility of introducing bias and discrimination through the use of unregulated third-party data.

Description: In order for an organization to benefit from artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML) models, it requires the involvement of different business areas. During this webcast, professionals from data analytics, audit and risk areas will address challenges and provide solutions for working together to develop, implement, use and risk manage AI/ML tools. Throughout the discussion, the presenters will discuss: • Defining and exploring the challenges and objectives between data scientists, domain experts and control functions • Risk management – model risks and other risks • End-to-end model validation • Model performance vs. interpretability/understandability trade-offs • What to audit – auditor’s challenge and solutions

Description: An introductory article describing how Bayesian statistics has evolved over the past 20 years and why it offers the actuarial discipline powerful tools to better understand and manage risk. Compared with traditional (frequentist) and black-box (machine learning) approaches, Bayesian analysis provides explainable models focused on distributions of estimates instad of simply point estimates.

Description: Internal modernization initiatives and external changes of the financial reporting regulations (e.g., LDTI, IFRS 17) increase the amount of validation activities for actuarial models. In addition, the use of predictive analytics in actuarial modeling requires a different set of validation skillsets/techniques in model validation. These internal and external forces call for a structured, streamlined and robust model validation practice.

Description: The purpose of this paper is to define a predictive model, based on known system attributes, for assessing risk associated with information systems.
