Thu 13 Oct 2022 - In November IFoA members will be asked to vote on a proposed move to using the Chartered Actuary designation. Council believes that the move will protect and advance the status of IFoA actuaries globally, and lay the foundations for a flourishing profession for decades to come. This webinar is an opportunity to hear from IFoA President Matt Saker and to put your questions to him and colleagues from the IFoA’s Council to help inform your vote.
Matt has 30 years of experience working as an actuary in the life and general insurance industry. After a long career at Watson Wyatt, Matt joined Aviva in 2009 where he held the role of Group Chief Actuary until January 2022.
Matt’s responsibilities in this role covered all aspects of the Group’s actuarial methodology in respect of both Life and General Insurance. In addition, Matt led the development of data science and the embedding of climate risk within Aviva’s Risk management Framework. Matt plays an active role in the UK actuarial profession and was elected to the Council of the Institute & Faculty of Actuaries (IFoA) in 2016, before joining the Regulation Board in 2018.
More recently Matt has been closely involved in the profession’s response to climate change, the development of the IFoA’s Diversity, Equity & Inclusion strategy.
