Actuarial services

Our Actuarial team has expertise in using financial, risk, and capital modelling to help clients manage the complexities that are inherent in business. We use a blend of technical and commercial expertise to provide insight, assurance and enable effective decision-making by business leaders.

Current market challenges

In recent years, the insurance industry has faced multiple regulatory waves bringing increased complexity and greater disclosure requirements. Solvency II dramatically increased the sophistication of capital modelling and the understanding of risks exposure of insurers. Today, IFRS17 has exposed a large and increasing demand for actuarial skills to first implement, and then optimise regulatory requirements for commercial benefit.

The regulatory overheads, combined with a greater desire for digitisation of offerings and interactions, have highlighted the need for a technology architecture that is set up for compliance with actuarial processes at the core. Many companies are thinking about setting up a holistic approach to data and systems architecture that will allow the insurer to grow in a sustainable way.

Climate change is also having an increasing impact on insurers, from regulatory reporting and risk assessment requirements, to the changing nature of physical risks insurers are exposed to.
