IFoA: News in brief

Open-access content 31st October 2013

Information gathering exercise re: APS P1's conflicts provisions

The new conflicts provisions in APS P1 v.2.0 (tinyurl.com/pzxegbg) have been in place now since July 2013. To understand and assess how these new provisions are working in practice, the IFoA will launch an anonymous information gathering exercise regarding the application of these new provisions. The exercise will be directed at scheme actuaries using the practising certificates renewal process and will begin from 1 January 2014. We will be writing to scheme actuaries in more detail about this exercise shortly.


Conflicts: new guide for employers of actuaries

A new guide for employers of actuaries (tinyurl.com/omzsshr) regarding actuaries' conflicts of interest has recently been published. The guide is designed to assist employers in understanding the obligations that actuaries have as regards identifying and addressing conflicts of interest, as it may be necessary for employers to take these into account when considering their own organisation's approach to conflicts of interest. If you have any queries on this or any other regulatory issues then please contact the Professional Support Service (tinyurl.com/psadgjl) or email:
