IFoA

Your IFoA membership subscription for 2020/2021 is due on 1 October.

This new qualification offers members a practical introduction to the concepts, tools and techniques of data science within an actuarial context

During this unusual time we know our members want quick and reliable access to authoritative, evidence-based information. If you haven’t yet taken a look, we would encourage members to view our Pandemics Hub (bit.ly/3fOKEtc). On this page you will find a wealth of resources – from blogs and The Actuary magazine articles to information from organisations and academia, as well as regular mortality updates from the CMI.

The IFoA is delighted to announce that Brinley (Bryn) Davies is to become a peer in the House of Lords.

In early May we launched our new website for The Actuary magazine. If you haven’t already, please do take a look at www.theactuary.com

The IFoA Review Team has launched the General Insurance Pricing Thematic Review. This will focus on actuarial involvement in pricing for UK home and motor insurance in order to understand actuaries’ roles in this area. The team will seek to identify best practice and highlight areas where education or guidance could be enhanced to better support members.

There are lots of ways to define ‘culture’; one I favour is ‘the way we do things’. I joined the IFoA to support its transformation and I know that it is unachievable without the right member-centric culture.

Support when it’s needed most

In my presidential address, I said: “Culture matters deeply. In fact, in a world of transformational change, culture is the only thing that really matters.”

A side-splitting success
