Description: The Survey of Emerging Risk has been successfully conducted in North America for 16 years, consistently providing reports that track risk managers' opinions on emerging topics transcending the current business cycle, with strategic plans extending over decades. Since 2022, the survey has been specifically introduced to the Asia-Pacific markets with local language support, aiming to gauge actuarial and risk management professionals' opinions on emerging risks in the Asian market.

Description: The purpose of this paper is to outline a framework that measures 'decision' and to argue that such a measure is the rightful focus of the enterprise. The paper develops the principle of maximizing expected utility as a normative decision theory from its philosophical roots in order to motivate its proper usage i.e., to the enterprise's ultimate good. From 2006 Enterprise Risk Management Symposium, M-AS06-1.

Description: 2011 Enterprise Risk Management Symposium, Chicago. The authors' stated proposal is to keep formal compliance Key Performance Indicators to support Risk Management system implementation and to have a business plan based on risk assessment.

Description: 2011 SOA Enterprise Risk Management Symposium, Chicago. The stated purpose of this paper is to consider whether a more comprehensive and timely measurement framework for risk exposure is now needed and to examine one possible approach. This paper proposes a new approach to risk measurement that, along with capital measurement and more rigorous oversight, will allow banks an ability to manage risk.

Description: 2011 Enterprise Risk Management Symposium, Chicago. This is the abstract of the referenced paper.

Description: 2011 SOA Enterprise Risk Management Symposium, Chicago. This paper suggests the use of a policy event-based loss estimation method using expert input and simulation for forecasting long duration expenditures: that is to say, there is an efficient time, which is random and observable to replace a physical asset.

Description: The CIA, SOA and Joint Risk Management Section of the CAS, CIA, and the SOA sponsored a whitepaper on the application of ERM at a federal government level.

Description: This article examines the emphasis that is currently being placed on assessing, monitoring and managing credit concentration risks.

Description: Risk management techniques such as stress testing and setting capital targets are fairly well established for life insurers; however, the implementation of these techniques can vary considerably. A fundamental question is how to manage multiple valuation perspectives, and the list of possibilities keeps growing. Companies can potentially consider some or all of the following: U.S. reporting measures (Stat, GAAP), internal measures (EV, VNB, economic capital), international reporting measures (IFRS), rating agency models or other developing standards (ICS, NAIC group capital). This session will begin with a quick overview of the defining characteristics of different valuation frameworks. We will then provide more focused and practical considerations for managing risk and capital under different frameworks, using specific examples to highlight key trade offs.

Description: Regulatory change and increased focus on internal risk management are driving a renewed interest in model efficiency. In this session, we will review several new and existing tools, that show significant promise for advanced modeling of equity linked products. These include: • Clustering • Use of unique--and potentially a different number of--scenarios for each policy • Semi Monte Carlo (SMC) – this is a proprietary technique that is similar to a combination of Monte Carlo and numeric integration • Using a neural network approach to optimize some of the more complex and manual aspects of clustering and improve the fit of the clustered model • Combining SMC with the use of unique scenarios per policy
