Every year, the IFoA recognises excellence in research through the awarding of prizes for exceptional research papers in actuarial science or related disciplines.
Welcome to the final 2021 edition of The Actuary. As another year comes to an end, so too does my time as this magazine’s editor. It has been a privilege to lead such a dedicated and talented team of volunteers during the past two years, and to collaborate with the wider team at the IFoA and the publisher, who work with passion and creativity to deliver each month’s issue.
One reason I was keen to join the IFoA as CEO was my belief that actuaries are a force for good. Having worked with actuaries in my pre-IFoA career, I have seen this first-hand, and the opportunity to help members find their voice in some of the big issues of the day was a motivation in applying.
