KSS: Opportunities for actuaries in banking

Organised by Knowledge Sharing Scotland with speaker, Iain Allan – Deputy chair of the IAA Banking Virtual Forum, previously Group Director of Strategy at RBS (now known as NatWest Group).

11 December from 09:00–10:00 (UK time)

Virtual KSS event on Zoom

About the event

Iain Allan will join us for our next virtual KSS event, to give an overview of banking and the opportunity for actuaries in this space, including:

  • working on expected credit losses, product pricing and asset-liability management
  • assessments of capital and liquidity adequacy, where actuaries working in multi-disciplinary teams can bring complementary skills and experience, including in enterprise-wide risk management
  • opportunities for data science actuaries (given the large amounts of data available in banking).

Often actuaries have kept to ‘traditional’ insurance and pension roles, so we hope that this session encourages actuaries to think about the wider role that actuaries can have in other areas.

About the speaker

After qualifying as an actuary, Iain spent most of his career in banking. He worked in investment banking at UBS, was head of strategy at RBS (now known as NatWest) and has subsequently helped several new entrants with their applications for banking licences in the UK. Iain is an Honorary Visiting Professor in the Faculty of Actuarial Science and Insurance at Bayes Business School, City University of London.
