Getting the Most out of the Examiners’ Reports
Beginning with the May 2012 examinations, the Examination Committee started publishing “Examiners’ Reports” for Exams 5 through 9. Examiner's Reports ceased being published when computer based testing began in the Fall 2020 sitting. These reports include narratives for each question describing where points were achieved and where points were commonly missed by the candidates. The Examiners’ Report is an invaluable tool when preparing for an upcoming exam or consequently assessing missed opportunities on a prior exam.

A new paper has been published on the Variance website:
“Individual-Level Loss Reserving and Environmental Changes” by A. Nii-Armah Okine
Macro-level models are still popular methods for reserve prediction. This paper advocates for increased implementation of micro-level reserving models and shows that micro-level reserving methods could easily accommodate environmental changes.
The 2023 Winter E-Forum features papers from Wang, Cullinane, Sen and Brown/Julga/Merz on Pareto-Gamma Mixture Excess Severity, Forecasting Audit Premiums, Prospect Theory & Cat Bonds, and P&C Reserving Best Practices.
