Normally, August means a mass exodus out of the office and to a beach, city break or walking holiday.

I look forward to co-creating an exciting future for the profession with you.

Letter of the month

I have spent the past few weeks reflecting on my first six months at the IFoA, in part prompted by the presidential cycle, and in part as I have now spent more time leading the IFoA from home than I have in the office!

This month we celebrate 30 years since SIAS, with the support of the IFoA, launched The Actuary to reach the profession’s entire membership.

Each issue of The Actuary brings new highlights, and every time I think: we won’t be able to top that.

A side effect of the coronavirus is that it has turned our friends, family, colleagues and others we may normally interact with face-to-face into potential threats – hence the need to stay at home as much as possible.

Letters from this month

It may not surprise you that my interview and onboarding process with the IFoA was incredibly thoughtful and thorough.
