Web Session 'Storytelling for
Actuaries'
25 November 2024 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In
today's data-driven world, actuaries play a crucial role in
explaining complex numbers and statistics to allow for informed
decisions. However, amidst the sea of data, the power of
storytelling often gets overlooked. In this immersive 4-hour
course, we invite actuaries to explore the art of storytelling and
discover how it can enhance their professional communication and
impact. |

Web Session 'The UBI Motor Insurance
Telematics Pipeline Blueprint'
26 November 2024 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The
nature and requirements of motor telematics remain somewhat elusive
to the industry as many skills and concepts are not part of the
classical syllabus of the profession; while time series data has a
fixed place in the profession, dealing with (physical) sensor data
has not, much less when extracting risk measure features from
it.
This web session will allow actuaries to gain an introductory
understanding of the relevant concepts that are required to enable
usage-based insurance in the motor line of business from the
technical and pricing point of view. |

Web Session 'Calculation of Life Insurance Products by
Means of Markov Chains'
27 November 2024 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The
calculation of life insurance products is traditionally based on
the approach of commutation values, whose table properties enable
extensive actuarial calculations even without large computer
capacities. However, especially for modern and more flexible life
insurance tariffs, the calculation by means of commutation values
reaches its limits, so that the calculation approach based on
Markov chains is gaining in importance and has been used for some
time in the mathematical cores of new portfolio administration
systems.
This web session will provide an insight into the calculation of
common life insurance products using the Markov approach. For this
purpose, first an overview of the best-selling life insurance
products in some European countries and their classic calculation
will be given. In the following, the principle of Markov chains is
explained and a model for calculating actuarial values is
derived. |

Web
Session 'Mathematical Modelling for Actuaries'
28/29 November 2024 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Actuaries are very experienced in modelling financial risks either
stemming from population dynamics or from random events.
Probability theory and statistics is their daily bread. But there
are many other phenomena out in the world without having a direct
financial impact but should be understood by actuaries as well.
This web session is about models which typically are not covered in
full by actuarial exams, but which could bring better insights to
risks actuaries have to price. We will show very general approaches
to set up models with applications from many different areas,
whether it is medicine, construction, meteorology, biology or
others. Of course, this web session can only be seen as an
introduction into modelling and cannot cover all interesting
models, but it should enable participants to find more in
literature or develop their own ideas. |

Session 'CERA 0: A Refresher Course in Financial Mathematics and
Risk Measurement'
2/3 December 2024 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The
web session 'A Refresher Course in Financial Mathematics' gives an
introduction to modern financial mathematics and derivative
pricing. It is designed to prepare actuaries without adequate
training in these fields for the quantitative parts of the CERA
education. The web session is moreover an ideal learning
opportunity for actuaries who want to become acquainted with or
refresh their knowledge in these highly relevant fields. |

Web
Session 'Life Biometric Assumptions: Bringing Together New &
Classic Methods'
5 December 2024 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The
purpose of this web session is to give the participant a
comprehensive understanding of how biometric assumptions are
developed for use in life insurance products using available data
sources and both classic and modern analytics techniques.
Participants will come away with knowledge of both what is possible
as well as how the various elements can be used together. This will
prepare the participants to evaluate their current practices and
make an informed decision regarding what other data or data
analytics techniques are worth exploring to effectively enhance
their operations. |

Web
Session 'Inflation Risk Management'
10 December 2024 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The
purpose of this web session is to explore how inflation and its
uncertain evolution impacts insurers and pension funds and how
actuaries can manage the risks involved. It will draw on recent
work within the Actuarial Association of Europe and other bodies on
inflation risk management. This session may be most suited to
managers and specialists working areas such as risk management,
financial controlling, reserving and product development. |

Session 'SCR Interest under Solvency II'
11 December 2024 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The
purpose is to explain how the current SCR interest has been
calibrated based on Principal Component Analysis and the need for
changes in a low interest environment. We will then describe the
new relative shifted approach and preliminary impact assessments.
We will also address the question on the SCR interest up in an
inflationary environment and possible solutions. |

Web
Session 'Stochastic Projection Models in Life Insurance'
12 December 2024 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This
web session provides an overview of three conceptually different
approaches for stochastic life insurance projection models
currently observable in the market. It compares their key ideas,
explains their strengths & challenges, and introduces the
underlying mathematical / actuarial methodologies. Concerning the
application of the comparably little-known Liability-2-Step
approach, the session will present the operational experience of an
Austrian insurance company. Although the comparison of the
modelling approaches will mainly be conducted from the viewpoint of
Solvency II reporting, the session will also discuss their
applicability as basis for the integration of external financial
reporting with internal planning and performance management. |
