In the evolving diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) conversation, the focus is often on one pillar or another and not necessarily the fact that DEI is a Venn diagram. This session will focus on the dynamics of two components of DEI: Black and LGBTQ+ identity as it relates to the actuarial profession. We will cover personal experiences of our practitioners and the areas where diverse perspectives can impact the products and services we provide to the market.
Through the discussion of interactive case studies the panelist will illustrate the use of professionalism standards like the Code of Conduct, ASOPS, guidance from the ABCD, US Qualification standards, in "real life" situations.
Learning Objectives:
Learn how the Code of Conduct, ASOPS, and US Qualification standards apply to CAS members.
Apply these documents in real-life situations.
