Pakistani Actuarial Network (PAN UK)

About us

Founded in 2024 by Naz Ali (Senior Actuary), PAN UK is an independent and non-profit membership organisation for all actuaries, in particular actuaries of Pakistani origin living and working in the UK and abroad.

PAN UK aims to connect all Pakistani actuaries, both in the UK and globally, to create a strong, supportive network. The society fosters connections that transcend geographical boundaries, enabling members to share knowledge, collaborate, and advance their careers collectively.
