Description: This webcast compares and contrasts four key regulatory capital regimes for life insurers around the world: Risk-Based Capital (RBC) in the United States, Life Insurer Capital Adequacy Test (LICAT) in Canada, Solvency II in the European Union and the Bermuda Insurance Solvency (BIS) Framework in Bermuda.

Description: In this video Dale Hall, Managing Director of Research at the Society of Actuaries Research Institute, discusses the recently published report on Informal Caregiving: Measuring the Cost and Reducing the Burdon. Highlighting the motivation behind the research and addressing the substantial costs and widespread impact of informal caregiving, Hall presents statistics indicating the prevalence and financial implications, emphasizing the disproportionate burden on women. He explores the potential negative effects on caregivers and their employers, especially in the context of evolving demographic trends and the influence of COVID-19.

Description: With there being over 11 million undocumented immigrants in the United States, some states are considering or have expanded Medicaid-like coverage to this population. Healthier Oregon launched in July 2022 to provide such benefits, and now covers more than 20,000 Oregonians. Hear about the structure of the program, along with its capitation rate build (which integrates federal participation for emergency and pregnancy-related services), risk corridor design, and related policy and implementation considerations. After attending this session, you will gain an understanding of the actuarial, regulatory and practical considerations for covering this population through managed care.

Description: Dive into this review on Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AIML) techniques for actuarial modeling for life & annuities. Presenters will showcase learnings from the recent SOA research paper "Predictive Analytics and Machine Learning – Practical Applications for Actuarial Modeling" (Nested Stochastic). The researchers will go over models and methodologies used to develop high-fidelity proxy models for various life & annuity applications.

Description: Learn about the climate-related risks and opportunities that are relevant to life insurers. Additionally, you will also discover an overview of key regulatory drivers around the globe that will require life insurers to take action in the near future.

Description: Actuaries advancing in their careers, leadership and influencing skills is essential. This webcast illustrates the challenges and methods of influencing in organizations using excerpts from a cinematic case study about a newly promoted senior manager in a large insurance corporation.

Description: Learn from panelists from different companies as they come together to discuss their experiences.

Description: Global trends in both technology and regulation are causing U.S. insurers to reflect more deeply on their model risk management frameworks. The world has seen a rapid proliferation of AI-based tools accompanied by overall increased usage of machine learning models, exacerbating model risk and reducing transparency in an unprecedented manner. This rising tide of AI means that it is imperative for U.S.-based insurers to address these emerging risks within their model risk management (MRM) frameworks. Regulation also continues to evolve in this space: in Canada, the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions (OSFI) revised Guideline E-23 to instill more detailed model risk management standards; in Bermuda, the Bermuda Monetary Authority (BMA) has published CP2 to add increased scrutiny on the data and models used by insurers. Insurers must react: MRM frameworks require prudent revisions to reflect these ever-changing landscapes of risk. Reassessing the core pillars of MRM frameworks-risk measurement, model development, validation, monitoring, and governance-is key to understanding the consequences of these evolving market changes on insurers' risk profile. Overall, the inclusion of these new tools into the world of insurance necessitates a thorough examination of insurers' MRM frameworks in order to align these new risks with core MRM principles. In this session we will: - Reflect on recent drivers of change and how they should be considered in the context of MRM - Explore best practices as it relates to MRM frameworks in the context of current global trends - Describe challenges, success stories, and lessons learned relating to recalibrating and embedding MRM frameworks

Description: Measuring the interplay between climate risk and morbidity and mortality is complex and often requires a multidisciplined team approach to meeting objectives. In this session, presenters discuss their journey and the twists and turns encountered in examining the link between wildfires, air quality, pollution, and morbidity and mortality implications. In addition to sharing their insights about the process, presenters will provide results from their, such as: - Mortality and morbidity risk trends influenced by climate change, wildfires, and air quality issues - Regional, risk class, socioeconomic, and temporal variations in these trends - Projections based on the observed trends and their implications for the future - The impacts on specific causes of morbidity and mortality, such as respiratory disease, cancer, and cardiovascular disease By attending this session, you will gain a better understanding of the following: - Implications of the study for life and health insurers - Key risk factors for individuals affected by air quality issues, the drivers for morbidity and mortality impact, and differences between the general and insured population - Process, data, models, and considerations needed for examining the mortality and morbidity consequences of climate risks like wildfires
