Tue 27 Jan 2026 - To support the publication of the IFoA’s thematic review report Actuarial involvement in climate and sustainability work, we are hosting a webinar to explore the key findings.
Join the report’s author Alan Marshall, IFoA Review Actuary, who will discuss the importance of IFoA members being supported to continue work in influencing and leading activity in the areas of climate and sustainability, and will highlight key aspects where this can be enhanced.
He will be joined by IFoA Senior Review Actuary David Gordon, IFoA Regulatory Board Lay Chair Sam Younger, and a guest speaker from the IFoA Sustainability Board.
The IFoA carries out regular thematic reviews of how work is carried out in practice by actuaries. This report provides a helpful overview on both the activity of actuaries in relation to this high-profile risk, and the latest developments around the world as firms, regulators and governments work to mitigate potential harms.
The review report was published on 8 December 2025 on our Actuarial Monitoring Scheme publications webpage.
