Description: The Society of Actuaries Research Institute has launched the Quarterly Mortality Monitoring Report (QMMR) series, providing updated U.S. mortality data every three months. Each report will facilitate the analysis of mortality trends, offering insights into the latest data as well as tools for visualizing these trends.

Description: This study of socioeconomic inequalities in mortality builds on a previous report in which we identified a large and growing gradient in life expectancy between 1982 and 2019 across U.S. counties classified into 10 socioeconomically homogeneous categories. In this report, we seek to identify the particular causes of death contributing to the growing disadvantage in mortality between populations in the least and most affluent deciles as previously defined.

Environmental refers to issues related to the planet, such as climate change mitigation and biodiversity protection; Social focuses on issues around societal problems, such as gender inequality; Governance puts emphasis on building and maintaining a sound corporate governance system.

Description: The Mortality and Longevity Strategic Research Program Steering Committee (MLPSC) released this report, which examined the latest trends in obesity and developed an estimate of the impact of obesity on mortality and morbidity costs in the U.S. and Canada.

Description: ReFocus is an annual global conference for senior-level life insurance and reinsurance executives hosted jointly by ACLI and the Society of Actuaries (SOA). This event features top-notch speakers, thought-provoking sessions, and superior networking opportunities.

Description: The SOA Research Institute’s Living to 100 Symposium gathers researchers from many specialties, including demographers, medical researchers, academics, insurtechs and actuaries to discuss their latest research on longevity. Come check out the highlights from the 2023 symposium.

Description: What are the recent trends in mortality? Should we expect different mortality experience in a post-COVID-19 world? Join us as we review the latest emerging trends in U.S. population mortality. By the end of this session, you will understand the impact of COVID-19 on future mortality experience. You will also understand other major causes of mortality and how they are trending.
