IFoA strategy update

Open-access content Tuesday 2nd August 2016 — updated 5.50pm, Wednesday 29th April 2020

The IFoA has recently released its refreshed strategy to react to current and upcoming global changes across the industries in which actuaries work, as well as those where actuarial skills could be used in the future.

The IFoA has recently released its refreshed strategy to react to current and upcoming global changes across the industries in which actuaries work, as well as those where actuarial skills could be used in the future. It also sets out the future direction of the organisation so that we can develop the way members are served wherever they are based around the world. 

Fiona Morrison, immediate past-president, comments: "It is a real honour to be culminating my year as IFoA president with the issue of an updated strategy for the IFoA that will take the organisation forward into the future. The quality and professionalism of actuaries is a key differentiator in some of the financial markets in which we operate, and this is not something that we are changing. However, this new strategy will ensure that we maintain and broaden our relevance as a profession and that we continue to lead the development and promotion of actuarial expertise around the globe."
