Description: Letter From The President column for the October/November 2012 edition of The Actuary magazine discussing the importance of actuaries staying relevant in today’s and the future’s work force.

Description: This article from The Actuary, April 1971, volume 5, Issue 4 is about a pension section meeting. The moderator opened the meeting by laying down some general principles. Using market value instead of book, accounting for unrealized gains, taking cognizance of different cash flows, objectives, constraints on the manager, and other characteristics of the funds to be compared-all met with general acceptance, in this audience at least.
