About This Event
This webinar is 90 minutes.
This webinar is complimentary to non-North American audiences in the CAS.
Where do actuaries get in trouble as regards the code of conduct? Each year the American Academy of Actuaries publishes a report from the Actuarial Board For Counselling and Discipline on its requests for guidance and official inquiries. We’ll review the 2021 and 2022 reports. We will then discuss a few case studies and discuss the relevant precepts. Behaving “professionally” is not always a black-and-white exercise – we operate in many grey areas, so it’s good to discuss in a group how these precepts apply in realistic situations. Actuarial codes of conduct are similar across various actuarial societies.
Key Messages
- The codes of conduct should be reviewed regularly to remind ourselves how to behave.
- The codes of conduct may be presented different by different actuarial societies, but the underlying concepts are the same.
- Behaving “professionally” is not always a black-and-white exercise – we operate in many grey areas, so it’s good to discuss how these precepts apply in realistic situations.
Learning Objectives
- Participants should be able to list the major components in the profession's code of conduct.
- Participants should be able to identify the most frequently violated codes of conduct.
- Participants should be able to discuss how the codes on conduct apply in different situations.
This webinar is complimentary to non-North American audiences who are part of the CAS and the CIA. The webinar will be conducted over GotoWebinar. The link to enter the webinar will be sent two hours prior to the webinar taking place. Please make sure to test your system.
