SUMMARY:Professional Judgment and its Relevance for Solvency II and IRRD
DESCRIPTION:The amended Solvency II and the IRRD (Insurance Recovery and Resolution Directive) will become applicable as of 30 January 2027. They will extend the scope of actuarial work considerably.\nWhile basic actuarial tasks remain unchanged\, additional requirements will need the involvement of actuaries.  The choice of appropriate scenarios for the medium- and long-term analysis of e.g. climate and sustainability risks and macroprudential concerns will constitute a new challenge. The determination of assumptions and methodologies used to model development over time horizons of more than 15 years requires a deep knowledge of undertaking’s business and strategy. Adhering to established professional standards can improve quality and increase the reliability of the outcomes. \nProfessional judgment by actuaries has been addressed in Actuarial Notes published by the Actuarial Association of Europe (AAE) in 2022 and the International Actuarial Association (IAA) in 2025.  Both documents aim to clarify the difference between expert judgment and the professional judgment exercised by actuaries. \nExpert judgment is based on specific training\, knowledge\, experience and expertise. In addition\, professional judgment has to take into account standards of professionalism\, including the profession’s Code of Conduct. An actuary is thus bound by standards set by the actuarial profession which encompass also ethical principles. \nBesides presenting an overview of these Actuarial Notes\, this web session aims to illustrate where professional judgment is required under Solvency II and the IRRD and how it can substantiate management decisions. \n\nProfessional judgment – overview of the Actuarial Notes\n“Current” requirements related to the calculation of technical provisions and the SCR\nChoice and analysis of appropriate scenarios\n\nProfessional judgment is a decisive component of both Solvency II and the IRRD. As a first step\, the web session aims to present an overview of the Actuarial Notes on professional judgment published by the AAE (2022) and the IAA (2025). \nAs a next step\, the requirements for professional judgment included in both frameworks will be presented. These will range from the calculation of technical provisions to the appropriate choice and analysis of medium- or long-term scenarios for the assessment of ESG- or sustainability risk. \nThe role and application of professional judgment will be discussed.

SUMMARY:EAA Web Session \'CERA\, Module B: Taxonomy\, Modelling and Mitigation of Risks\'
DESCRIPTION:The web session focuses on quantitative analyses of financial and non-financial risks of an insurance company and the effect and possible applications of risk mitigation techniques. After an introduction to the economic valuation of an insurance company\, including stochastic valuation models and approximation techniques for life companies\, and the building blocks of its economic balance sheet\, the risk measure as well as the relevant regulatory requirements of Solvency II will be discussed. Different concepts of risk modelling covering from standard formula to fully internal models will be presented. \nMethods for modelling market\, credit\, operational and underwriting risks will be presented in detail. The discussion covers the risk definition and identification and how it can be distinguished from other risks. Qualitative and quantitative valuation approaches will be discussed – including scenario analyses\, stress tests\, deterministic and stochastic assessments. Furthermore\, crucial aspects of any model such as assumptions\, distributions\, calibration and validation are discussed\, as well as limitations and criteria for the adequacy of a model for solving a given problem. \nHaving introduced and discussed the risk modelling\, tools and techniques will be discussed that are available in the insurance business to mitigate these risks. That includes the discussion around the implications of reinsurance and securitisation as well as portfolio management. We will also present what life insurance companies subject to traditional with profit business can do to hedge their main risks. \nBoth elements\, risk modelling and measurement as well as risk mitigation\, are closely related and interact with each other\, what will be reflected in the topics presented and the structure of the seminar. \nThe consolidated view on risks in a company and an outlook on Group models close the course.\nAnmeldeschluss: 2026-09-03\nLink: https://actuarial-academy.com/en/continuing-education/upcoming-trainings/detail/cera-module-b-taxonomy-modelling-and-mitigation-of-risks-e0535/

SUMMARY:Life Insurance Across Europe – An Overview from an Actuarial Perspective
DESCRIPTION:While life insurance across Europe serves similar fundamental purposes\, its practical implementation varies significantly across jurisdictions. Each market is shaped by its own regulatory framework\, tax environment\, product design traditions\, and demographic dynamics. Most actuaries are well-versed with their own markets\, but often lack the insight into life insurance and its issues in other jurisdictions. \nThis webinar will give an overview of more than ten European countries in the form of short\, half-hour presentations of life insurance in their particular jurisdiction. \nCosts: 150 EUR for both half-days (including tax)\nDates: \n\nThursday\, 25 June\, 9:00–12:30 (CEST)\nMonday\, 29 June\, 14:00–17:30 (CEST)\n\nFor each country considered\, this seminar tries to give a short overview (ca. 30 min.) of life insurance and its country-specific issues. Typical topics covered are: \n\nSocial security system as the underlying environment for private insurance needs\nTypical life insurance products (protection\, unit-linked\, traditional with guarantees\, pension\, etc.)\, possibly with market shares\nLegal\, supervisory and tax requirements\nProfit participation mechanisms\nPricing practices (regulatory restrictions\, actuarial assumptions\, costs and legal restrictions)\nReserving approaches (best estimate vs. prudent reserving\, margins\, regulatory requirements)\nAny other aspects particular to life insurance in that country.\n\nSpeakers: \n\nGermany: Alexander Kling\, ifa Ulm\nSwitzerland: Frank Genheimer\, new insurance business\nFrance: Valéry Jost\, MUTAVIE\nItaly: Federico Scamperle\, Assicurazioni Generali S.p.A.\nDenmark: Sam Achord\, PensionDanmark\nFinland: Esko Kivisaari\nPoland: Pawel Sikora\, Vienna Life\nSlowakia & Czechia: Maria Kamenarova\nHungary: Erika Schaub\, Generali Biztosító Zrt.\nOverview over other CEE countries: Laszlo Koltai\, Vienna Insurance Group\n\n  \nType of event: online via MS-Teams\nLanguage of the presentations: English\nCosts: 150 EUR for both half-days (including tax)\nCPD-Points (Austria): 6 Points\, IDD-Credits: 6 (Module 2)\nDates: \n\nThursday\, 25 June\, 9:00–12:30 (CEST)\nMonday\, 29 June\, 14:00–17:30 (CEST)\n\n\n\nTarget group:\nThe seminar is primarily aimed at actuaries\, and all speakers are actuaries\, but the presentations will not dig into actuarial details. It is also well-suited for other interested professionals\, such as staff in insurance accounting or controlling\, sales agents\, brokers\, and marketing professionals. \nContents:\nThis online seminar is aimed at providing Actuaries with insights into life insurance markets across Europe. The objective is to move beyond a purely national perspective and to develop a broader understanding of product design\, regulatory frameworks\, and actuarial practices in different countries. \nFrom a variety of countries well-known speakers will join us\, covering key aspects of the respective market. These include typical life insurance products (such as traditional\, unit-linked\, protection\, and pension products)\, main target groups\, as well as legal and supervisory requirements and tax treatment. In addition\, topics such as profit participation mechanisms\, minimum biometric risk requirements\, pricing practices (including cost structures)\, and reserving approaches will be addressed. Further country-specific features may also be included to provide a comprehensive overview of the structure and particularities of each market. \nAbout the Speakers:\nFrank Genheimer is Managing Director and Partner at New Insurance Business (Switzerland). He works at the intersection of actuarial science\, product architecture\, and capital markets\, focusing on how life insurance can evolve from standalone products to integrated financial systems. A trained actuary with a strong product DNA\, he combines actuarial expertise with hands-on experience across the full value chain of life insurance – from product development and investment strategy to distribution and inforce management.

SUMMARY:EAA Web Session 'Deep Learning in Finance for Pension Funds with Examples'
DESCRIPTION:Deep Learning supports Solvency Requirements for Pension Funds and ensures the Guarantee of Benefit Payments at any time. It is particularly well-suited for time series forecasting related to inflation\, yield curves and asset allocation returns in order to prepare and review these. We use the Long short-term memory (LSTM) method\, a type of recurrent neural network (RNN)\, as well as other neural networks. \nDeep learning is a type of machine learning that uses multi-layered neural networks. The libraries programmed with Python are fascinating areas of research because they help to verify time series forecasts and to understand how long it might take for the pension fund to reach the target value of the investment fluctuation reserve based on the current situation. \nRNN-based models\, particularly LSTMs\, are increasingly being used to capture complex spatio–temporal dependencies\, while hybrid architectures combine convolutional and recurrent components (i.e.\, CNN-LSTM). Researchers have developed hybrid models that further improve prediction accuracy\, which is very important for financial forecasting.\nAnmeldeschluss: 2026-06-25

SUMMARY:EAA Web Session 'How to Read the IFRS Balance Sheet for Insurers'
DESCRIPTION:In 2017\, after more than two decades of debates\, outreach\, and Exposure Drafts\, the IASB finally published the new IFRS 17 standard for Insurance Contracts. Following additional years of further debates on several actuarial and accounting-related aspects the new standard has become effective on 1st January 2023 and fundamentally changed the way on how many insurance companies present their obligations and their financial performance stemming from insurance contracts. \nAs experience shows\, actuaries play a key role in that new reporting regime: The standard requires many fundamental decisions\, which determine the reporting of the amount and profile of IFRS results for years to come. Actuaries need to understand the corresponding consequences for reporting and to be able to explain it to their top-management. They also play a key role in the preparation of landmark decisions and need to closely collaborate and communicate with other functions\, i.e. the accounting function. \nAccordingly\, a strong focus of this web session is to assist actuaries to better understand the key reporting requirements of IFRS 17\, in particular regarding the IFRS balance sheet and statement(s) of financial performance (Profit and Loss as well as Other Comprehensive Income). The web session will be useful for both finance and actuarial experts involved in IFRS 17 reporting and analysis or simply interested in the practical application of this ground-breaking new standard.\nAnmeldeschluss: 2026-06-22\nLink: https://actuarial-academy.com/en/continuing-education/upcoming-trainings/detail/eaa-web-session-how-to-read-the-ifrs-balance-sheet-for-insurers-e0538/

SUMMARY:EAA Web Session 'The New Insurance Performance Metrics (in Gaap\, Solvency 2 & IFRS)' on 22/23 & 25/26 June 2026
DESCRIPTION:on 22/23 & 25/26 June 2026 \nDue to the inversion of the production cycle\, the insurance business is very different from other traditional industries. Understanding\, measuring and managing the performance of insurance companies is difficult due to the specific risks insurance companies must cover. It is therefore essential that you\, as an employee of the insurance sector\, understand how your company operates\, how its activity is measured via the balance sheet and the income statement\, which main regulations influence this measure\, which indicators are used to assess the performance and what levers can improve this performance. \nThe aim of this web session is to:\n– Understand how to read an insurance balance sheet (with a focus on technical provisions and own funds)\n– Be able to read an income statement (P&L) across regulatory frameworks\n– Compute relevant Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)\n– Understand the impact of risk mitigation (reinsurance) and Assets and Liabilities Management (ALM) on the KPIs \nWe will cover life as well as non-life insurance. Health insurance will not be specifically covered.\nAnmeldeschluss: 2026-06-18

SUMMARY:EAA Web Session 'Causal AI for Actuarial Models'
DESCRIPTION:For years\, correlation has been central to the actuarial profession’s practice. Actuaries have mastered the art of identifying patterns in historical data to price risk and predict future losses. However\, in the era of „Big Data“ and increasingly complex algorithms\, there is a critical limitation: traditional statistical models can tell us what is happening\, but they often struggle with why. While a predictive model may identify a strong association between a specific variable and a loss\, it does not establish a direct cause-and-effect relationship. Building on Judea Pearl’s ideas\, Causal AI helps actuaries move from correlations in historical data to causal relationships. \nIs causal inference a fashion of the moment? No—for the modern actuary\, it represents a step toward actively influencing outcomes. Instead of asking\, „What usually happens?“ actuaries can now answer\, „What would happen if we changed this specific factor?“. By using causal diagrams (DAGs) and the „Ladder of Causation\,“ actuaries can distinguish true risk drivers from collider bias. \nCausal AI enables product designs that reflect contemporary lifestyle habits. For instance\, it can support creating adaptive premiums\, improving transparency and fairness in underwriting by embedding causal reasoning directly into the sales process\, and leveraging IoT data with updated causal analysis to provide a flexible subscription that reacts to the user’s changing risk profile. \nIn this seminar\, we will explore the formal scientific discipline of causal inference and the transition into the actuarial field. Will explore new actuarial toolkits needed to address challenges in the incoming actuarial work.\nAnmeldeschluss: 2026-06-15\nLink: https://actuarial-academy.com/en/continuing-education/upcoming-trainings/detail/eaa-web-session-causal-ai-for-actuarial-models-e0563/

SUMMARY:EAA Web Session 'Power Query\, Power Pivot & Power BI for Actuaries'
DESCRIPTION:Starting from Microsoft Excel\, this web session will demonstrate how Power Query\, Power Pivot\, and Power BI can be integrated to create a seamless and efficient actuarial data workflow. Power Query\, via the M language\, enables automated data extraction and transformation. Power Pivot allows for the construction of robust Data Models and the use of the DAX language for advanced calculations. \nThese Data Models can be copied directly from Power Query into Power BI\, where interactive visualisations and reporting further enhance actuarial analysis. The session focuses on practical actuarial examples\, illustrating how the combined use of M\, DAX\, and the Data Model across all three tools enables actuaries to manage complex data tasks more efficiently and deliver clearer\, more impactful results.\nAnmeldeschluss: 2026-06-11\nLink: https://actuarial-academy.com/en/continuing-education/upcoming-trainings/detail/eaa-web-session-power-query-power-pivot-power-bi-for-actuaries-e0560/

SUMMARY:EAA Web Session 'Modelling Lapse Rates in Life Insurance'
DESCRIPTION:The purpose of the session is to provide a comprehensive technical overview of methods used to model life insurance lapse and surrender rates\, while demonstrating how these approaches integrate with actuarial cash flow models\, which support accounting\, pricing\, risk\, and solvency assessments. \nKey determinants of lapse behaviour will be discussed\, ranging from market-dependent factors such as interest rates\, unemployment\, and economic cycles to contract-specific influences like product design\, policyholder demographics\, and distribution channels. The session will also include a review of empirical findings\, including competing hypotheses that link lapse rates to interest rate movements or policyholder liquidity needs. \nSeveral modelling concepts will be overviewed. These include traditional segment-based assumptions\, statistical approaches such as one-factor models\, generalized linear models (GLM) with emphasis on logistic regression\, and their extensions. Machine learning approaches such as classification and regression trees\, random forests\, gradient boosting\, and neural networks will also be considered\, with attention to their opportunities and constraints in actuarial contexts. \nFrom a technical perspective\, the session will focus on Key determinants of lapse behaviour\, variable selection\, and diagnostic tools\, including residual analysis\, goodness-of-fit tests\, and predictive performance metrics. Backtesting and validation strategies will also be discussed. Finally\, the session will address practical aspects of implementation\, including deployment in R and/or Python\, integration with actuarial systems and its challenges.\nAnmeldeschluss: 2026-06-09\nLink: https://actuarial-academy.com/en/continuing-education/upcoming-trainings/detail/eaa-web-session-modelling-lapse-rates-in-life-insurance-e0551/

SUMMARY:EAA Web Session 'Non-Life Pricing Using Statistical Techniques with R Applications'
DESCRIPTION:Non-Life insurance is facing many challenges ranging from fierce competition on the market or evolution in the distribution channel used by the consumers to evolution of the regulatory environment. Pricing is the central link between solvency\, profitability and market shares (volume). Improving pricing practice encompasses several dimensions: \n– Technical: Is our pricing adequate to cover the underlying cost of risk of my policyholders and the other costs we are facing? Which are the key variables driving the risk? Are they adequately taken into account in our pricing? What’s the impact of the claims history of my policyholder on its expected risk? In which segment are we profitable and in which are we not profitable?\n– Competition: At what price will we attract the segments that we target and price out those that we do not want? Is the positioning of our competitors influencing our pricing practice and our profitability? What’s my position with respect to my competitors in term of pricing? What are the segments in which I am well positioned and the segments where I am not well positioned?\n– Elasticity: What price (evolution) are our existing customers prepared to accept? Does the sensitivity to price evolution depend on the profile of my customer?\n– Segmentation: Is our segmentation granular enough for our purposes? \nThe aim of this web session is to present some advanced actuarial/statistical techniques used in non-life pricing or underwriting. The web session focuses on selected practical problems faced by pricing actuaries and product managers. \nLink: https://actuarial-academy.com/en/continuing-education/upcoming-trainings/detail/eaa-web-session-non-life-pricing-using-statistical-techniques-with-r-applications-e0549/

SUMMARY:EAA Web Session 'Understanding IFRS 17'
DESCRIPTION:The goal of the two-day web session is to provide participants with a comprehensive\nintroduction to the new measurement\, presentation and disclosure guidance for insurance contracts. It will cover life\, health and non-life business\, including the special guidance on direct participating contracts and shorter term non-life contracts and give useful examples. In the web session\, we will first shed light on the context of accounting for insurance contracts within the IFRS 17 framework. We will present and discuss the general concepts behind the new model and refer to the application of valuation models like the Variable Fee Approach (VFA) and\nthe Premium Allocation Approach (PAA). The web session will proceed with a discussion of\ntopics specific to individual lines of business. We will close with an overview of the most\nmethodological relevant topics seen in various European markets\, share emerging market experience and discuss these with the participants. Overall\, the goal is to enable participants to understand the standard and help transfer the requirements into your specific situation. It is thus intended to prepare participants for model development\, implementation\, testing\, reviewing and consulting with management\, accounting\nand auditors.\nAnmeldeschluss: 2026-05-07\nLink: https://actuarial-academy.com/seminars/seminar?No=E0550

SUMMARY:EAA Web Session 'Designing the Next Generation of Life Products'
DESCRIPTION:Customers’ lives have changed – and life insurance must evolve with them. Innovation is no longer a choice but a necessity. Regulatory shifts\, digitalisation\, changing capital markets\, rising customer expectations\, and new competitors are reshaping the playing field. How can life insurers respond – developing products that are simpler and more relevant\, while making product development itself faster\, more flexible\, and more impactful? This session explores how to build the next generation of life insurance products: innovative\, agile\, and impactful.

SUMMARY:EAA Web Session 'Build LLM Inference in Excel: Advanced Excel to Demystify GPTs'
DESCRIPTION:The web session has two main aims:\n1. Introduce the audience to the set of functional programming functions introduced in Excel 2024 (LAMBDA\, LET\, MAP\, REDUCE\, etc) and show how they can be used in practice to create algorithms previously out of Excel reach\, such as loops\, algorithms in more than 2 dimensions and recursion\n2. Explain how an LLM works under the hood by rebuilding a simple example step by step in Excel \nBy the end of the course\, participants will:\n– understand how to exploit the new functionalities included in Microsoft Excel to create the sort of algorithms that would have required VBA or another programming language\n– understand how GPTs are internally structured\, how they parse text into numbers\, why the text they generate is stochastic\, what are their inherent limitation and where the computational hurdles arise
