CAS Affiliate Membership Policy

The Casualty Actuarial Society (CAS) has a class of membership, Affiliate, to serve qualified actuaries who do or will practice in the property and casualty/general insurance field and wish to be active in the CAS, but do not meet the qualifications to become an Associate or Fellow of the CAS. Affiliate Membership recognizes that the Affiliate Member has been granted professional status as an actuary by another actuarial organization and is permitted to practice in the property/casualty field.

Affiliates are governed by the CAS Constitution, Bylaws and Code of Professional Conduct, and are subject to CAS disciplinary procedures (documents may be viewed on the CAS Web Site). Practice rights are not granted to Affiliate Members; rather they must adhere to U.S., Canadian, or other nation specific qualification standards to determine eligibility to practice.

Affiliates are entitled to attend meetings and seminars of the CAS by paying the fees specified for members, participate at Society functions, and serve on CAS committees (except for Admissions and Board committees).

Affiliates receive regular communications from the CAS, including newsletters, digital subscriptions to all CAS publications including Actuarial Review (a bimonthly magazine) and Variance (a scientific journal). They also are granted access to the Member Directory.

Affiliate members will be assessed annual dues that are 10% of the annual dues for Associates and Fellows. A subsidized rate of 5% of the annual dues will be available for applicants in Assistance Qualified Countries.

Affiliate members are not authorized to append CAS initials to their name or to refer to themselves as "Member of the Casualty Actuarial Society."Rather, they can refer to themselves as "Affiliate Member of the CAS" or "Affiliate of the CAS." Affiliates do not have CAS voting rights.

Affiliate Members are required to have attained an actuarial designation of an organization that is a member of the International Actuarial Association, and remain a member in good standing with this organization. They must also demonstrate property and casualty/general insurance related current or planned practice.

The requirement for property & casualty/general insurance practice should be demonstrated through examples of recent or upcoming actuarial work, indicating an intention to continue practicing in this field.

To apply for Affiliate Membership, please complete the application, and provide documentation as prescribed.
