The CERA Global Association (CGA) is pleased to announce that Victoria Gao has become the 5,000th person to earn the prestigious CERA (Chartered Enterprise Risk Actuary/Certified Enterprise Risk Analyst) credential.

Victoria is a member of the Actuaries Institute in Australia and an associate director in the Debt Markets Securitisation team at the Commonwealth Bank of Australia. "For me, CERA was very relevant due to its applicability in non-traditional actuarial fields of work," said Gao. "The theory provides a good foundation in the understanding of risk, its assessment and treatment."
