Description: COVID-19 brought changes that disrupted virtually everyone’s personal and professional lives. In April 2021, the Society of Actuaries (SOA) surveyed 26,101 members and candidates to understand the pandemic’s impact on actuarial careers. Approximately 7% (1,912) responded and included demographic information, 77% of whom were from the U.S., 14% from Canada and 9% from other countries.1 The SOA also analyzed actuarial exam progress at an aggregate level.

Description: This paper is the report of a survey intended to provide the Society of Actuaries with information from traditional and non-traditional employer markets - testing opportunities for non-traditional employer markets and for expanded roles in the broader financial service markets. This information will enable the SOA to better define the value of its credentials as well as that of future actuarial skill sets and attributes to these targeted employer markets.
