Actuary

Actuarial professionals and financial risk managers who work for insurers, pension funds, consultancy organizations, supervisory institutions and other financial organizations face an increasingly complex set of challenges. New technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning and automation are changing the working environment, presenting new challenges and opportunities for the actuarial professional. Mathematical and statistical skills enable actuaries to analyse and understand the financial risks of future events and provide useful strategic advice and solutions for an increasingly broad group of organizations, not limited to the traditional field of the actuarial profession. Here we are seeing the emergence of a diverse range of roles, such as: Strategic Advisor, Mathematical specialist for complex modelling and techniques, Product Developer, Financial Risk Manager, Reviewer/Independent testing actuary (such as Actuarial Function Holder), Certifier, Reporting specialist, Data analyst and more.
