Description: Highlights of recent American Council of Life Insurers (ACLI) activities

Description: In this paper, Chapter VII of the 1987 Valuation Actuary Handbook, the author, an attorney with the American Academy of Actuaries, discusses the valuation actuary concept, starting with the current regulatory system. The potential legal implications, including personal liability, are explored. The author notes that “perhaps most significant is the fact that by increasing the scope of the valuation actuary’s duties, the nature and scope of potential professional liability also increase.”
