In brief: Ethical guidance on data science

Last month, the IFoA published non-mandatory ethical and professional guidance on  data science for members. 

Produced by the IFoA Regulation Board, with input from the IFoA’s Education Team and Data Science Member Interest Group, the guidance has been produced to assist members when faced with ethical and professional issues while practising data science-related work.

The guidance describes how members’ professional obligations can relate to data science work and contains a number of illustrations and case studies. We hope it will be of practical value to members when faced with ethical or professional issues or dilemmas.
