The Casualty Actuarial Society today released a new white paper that explores how the needs for data analytics skills are changing and will continue to change in the future, both inside and outside of the insurance industry.
The Casualty Actuarial Society joined an array of international industry leaders for the Actuarial Society of Hong Kong’s (ASHK) 4th General Insurance Virtual Seminar, “Preparing and Dealing with Change.”
The new Variance Journal website is now live! A list of frequently asked questions is available in the About section of the website.
The CAS Exam Committee is in need of volunteers. Current openings are for question writers for both MAS and upper-level exams.
As part of our continued efforts to improve our digital and online presence, the CAS has chosen ScholasticaHQ as our new journal hosting site. With this transition, the CAS recommits its efforts to the mission of Variance, “to be a significant player in the larger scientific community.”
Many CAS members have expressed concerns to senior leadership regarding a recent email that sought to influence their vote on the CAS Bylaws proposal that is on the 2021 CAS elections ballot. The email contained misstatements, and we believe it is important to clarify those misstatements.
The American Academy of Actuaries’ Committee on Qualifications (COQ) has approved the release of a second exposure draft of the Qualification Standards for Actuaries Issuing Statements of Actuarial Opinion in the United States (USQS), and comments are invited.
The 2021 CAS election ballot is now available to be completed online. Voting members (Associates who have been members at least five years and Fellows) will receive an email from our online elections vendor, Elections Online, inviting you to complete the ballot.
The Board of Directors is proposing changes to the CAS Constitution and Bylaws to streamline the governance of the Society. Fellows will be asked to vote on the changes in conjunction with the 2021 CAS elections in August. In putting the proposals on the ballot, the Board is recommending that the Fellows vote in favor of the amendments.
