SUMMARY:EAA Web Session 'Open-Source Tools R and Python: Extending the Toolbox of the Actuary'
DESCRIPTION:Over the last years\, typical data science tasks like data manipulation and modelling have gained a stronger foothold in the day-to-day professional life of the actuary. Open-source languages are renowned to be especially equipped to deal with these kinds of tasks\, but can also be tricky to get started with\, especially when one has not been properly introduced to them. This workshop offers the opportunity to become more familiar with the open-source environment and its applications\, illustrated in detail by means of a number of hands-on modules\, thereby enabling the actuary to tackle the data science tasks in an elegant manner.\nAnmeldeschluss: 2025-09-25\nLink: https://actuarial-academy.com/seminars/seminar?No=E0510

SUMMARY:EAA 'CERA\, Module B: Taxonomy\, Modelling and Mitigation of Risks' Veranstalter: EAA
DESCRIPTION:The web seminar 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… read more on EAA website.\nAnmeldeschluss: 2025-09-12\nLink: https://actuarial-academy.com/cera/seminar?No=E0495

SUMMARY:EAA Web Session 'Actuarial Data Science - Completion'
DESCRIPTION:This is part four of four courses required to obtain the EAA Certificate in Actuarial Data Science. To earn the certificate\, participants must complete all four modules\, which include both the seminar and the exam. Members of AVÖ and/or DAV will obtain the additional title Certified Actuarial Data Scientist (by AVÖ and/or DAV) by fulfilling the same requirements. \nFurthermore\, all courses are open to interested actuaries to deepen their knowledge and skills in the field of Actuarial Data Science (without exams). \nDue to technological progress in connection with Data Science and Digitalization\, summarized under the buzzword Big Data\, a plethora of opportunities and challenges for the industry is arising. \nTechnological developments have now also reached the insurance industry and thus have a direct impact on the working world of actuaries. \nUnder the heading Actuarial Data Science\, the procedures and methods of data mining are embedded in the actuarial context. These range from mathematics-driven statistical methods for derivation of insights from data to computation-driven methods sometimes summarized as machine learning. As a result of almost unlimited computing capacity through cloud computing and wide availability of training data\, tried and tested methods of machine learning\, such as artificial neural networks\, are experiencing a renaissance in theory and practice. \nThis web session is the fourth part of a four-part series at the German Actuarial Association (DAV). In this online training\, we will expand on and deepen some of the topics already known from the basic\, advanced and immersion seminar\, discussing further important techniques in the context of deep learning and data storage. It is based on the learning objectives of the DAV for Actuarial Data Science Immersion\, which is part of the actuarial training in Germany.\nAnmeldeschluss: 2025-09-02\nLink: https://actuarial-academy.com/seminars/seminar?No=E0470

SUMMARY:EAA Web Session 'Non-Life Pricing Using Machine Learning Techniques with R Applications''
DESCRIPTION:Non-Life insurance is facing many challenges ranging from fierce competition in the market or evolution in the distribution channel used by consumers to evolution of the regulatory environment. \nPricing 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 terms 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?\nSegmentation: 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\, competition analysis and profitability analysis. The web session focuses on some practical problems faced by pricing actuaries and product managers and presents some new techniques used in non-life pricing in order to open new perspectives for product development (competition analysis\, profitability analysis\,…). \nAnmeldeschluss: 2025-06-13

SUMMARY:EAA Web Session 'Intro to Conformal Prediction & Uncertainty in Actuarial Models'
DESCRIPTION:Quantifying Uncertainty in Actuarial Models: An Introduction to Conformal Prediction\nAs the actuarial landscape becomes increasingly data-driven\, traditional statistical methods are evolving\, linking point estimates with quantifiable uncertainty. Conformal Prediction is a powerful framework used to evaluate the uncertainty of predictions. It turns point predictions into prediction regions\, in this way\, when you make a prediction\, the output has probabilistic guarantees that it covers the true outcome. In this web session\, we will explore the theoretical foundations of Conformal Prediction\, its assumptions\, methodology\, and advantages over traditional approaches. Participants will see how this technique can be a disruptive innovation in risk assessment\, pricing\, reserving\, and forecasting by integrating uncertainty directly into predictions. The session is balanced between theory and hands-on activities\, offering real-world examples and code demonstrations in classification\, regression\, time series\, natural language processing (NLP)\, and computer vision\, all applied to challenges in the actuarial field. \nThe web session aims to equip actuarial professionals with the knowledge and skills behind Conformal Prediction\, improving the reliability and interpretability of their predictive models. By the end of the course\, participants will understand how to apply conformal methods to various types of data and leverage these techniques to improve decision-making processes in actuarial tasks.\nAnmeldeschluss: 2025-06-11\nLink: https://actuarial-academy.com/seminars/seminar?No=E0508

SUMMARY:AA Web Session 'IDD and POG Requirements from an Actuarial Perspective'
DESCRIPTION:While the Insurance Distribution Directive (IDD) has been in force in each EU member state since 2018 at the latest\, its implementation has only become the focus of supervisory authorities in the last two years. Of particular importance are the requirements for the product approval process according to Article 25 IDD in connection with the Delegated Regulation on product oversight and governance requirements (POG). Specifically\, this relates to requirements for the development and distribution of new products and significant adaptations of existing insurance products. The requirements serve to effectively protect consumers and are part of the business organization of insurance undertakings. Depending on the nature of the insurance product and the risk of consumer detriment related to it\, the product approval process essentially includes…\nAnmeldeschluss: 2025-05-29

SUMMARY:EAA Web Session 'How to Read the IFRS Balance Sheet for Insurers'
DESCRIPTION:The goal of this three-hour web session is to provide participants with a comprehensive introduction on the IFRS reporting requirements for insurance contracts after go-live of IFRS 17. Focus will be the illustration of the reporting requirements of IFRS 17 to “demystify” the new presentation requirements on the IFRS balance sheet and the statement(s) of financial performance (Profit and Loss as well as Other Comprehensive Income). The web session will also briefly compare key aspects of the reporting requirements to former IFRS 4-reporting practice\, contain a brief summary of the main information which can be found within the IFRS 17 reporting and cover the different aspects for primary and reinsurance related business. \nOverall\, the goal is to enable participants to understand the IFRS 17 reporting and help transferring the reporting requirements into the specific situation of the participant. It is thus intended to prepare participants for analysing\, testing\, reviewing\, and consulting with management\, accounting\, and auditors.\nAnmeldeschluss: 2025-05-15\nLink: https://actuarial-academy.com/seminars/seminar?No=E0482

SUMMARY:AA Web Session 'Understanding IFRS 17'
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. After additional three years of further debates on several actuarial and accounting-related aspects of the implementation\, the IASB issued amendments to IFRS 17 on 25 June 2020\, which included a postponed effective date of IFRS 17 by two years to allow for an orderly adoption and at the same time to enable more insurers to implement the new IFRS 17. The new standard is now effective since 1 January 2023 and changed fundamentally the way insurance companies present their obligations and their financial performance stemming from insurance contracts according to IFRS. \nAs evolving experience shows\, actuaries play a key role in this area. The standard requires many fundamental decisions\, which determines the amount and profile of IFRS results for years to come. Complex measurement models have been developed and the collaboration and communication with accounting functions has become more intense and more complex. Actuaries need to explain the actuarial valuation output as well as the impact of applied accounting decisions and the corresponding consequences for the financial statements to their top-management. \nAccordingly\, a strong focus of this web session lies on the accounting framework in which actuaries operate. It addresses the specifics of all relevant insurance lines of business and highlights key conceptual topics and options the standard offers for implementation. It will also address the impact on transition\, which will often affect the financial statements for years to come. The web session will be useful for both finance and actuarial experts involved in IFRS 17 implementation or simply interested in the practical application of this ground-breaking new standard.\nAnmeldeschluss: 2025-05-06

SUMMARY:EAA Web Session 'GenAI Beyond the Basics: Advanced Concepts for Actuaries'
DESCRIPTION:Generative AI (GenAI) tools\, such as ChatGPT\, are rapidly reshaping the way actuaries approach problem-solving\, analysis\, and communication. Beyond their familiar web-based interfaces\, these tools offer powerful functionalities through programmatic integration\, which allows users to directly access and interact with the underlying Large Language Models (LLMs) via APIs (Application Programming Interfaces). Unlike standard web-based interactions\, API access enables actuaries to seamlessly integrate GenAI into their existing workflows. Furthermore\, it supports scalable usage\, where multiple requests can be processed simultaneously or sequentially\, allowing for more efficient handling of large volumes. In this two-hour web session\, participants will experience interactive live demonstrations\, where advanced GenAI concepts are presented and applied to real actuarial use cases. \nAfter introducing the basics of applying GenAI through APIs\, we will explore the following advanced GenAI concepts: \nFine-Tuning: Customizing pre-trained LLMs with domain-specific data to improve accuracy and relevance in generating responses.\nRetrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG): Combining LLMs with external data sources to produce contextually enriched and up-to-date outputs.\nFunction Calling: Enabling LLMs to execute predefined operations\, such as calculations or database queries\, by invoking specific functions in the underlying programming language.\nStructured Outputs: Generating responses in predefined formats\, such as JSON or tabular data\, to ensure consistency and integration with other systems or processes.\nFor each concept\, the session will present its purpose\, principles\, and functionality\, accompanied by a relevant actuarial use case to illustrate its practical application. The session will conclude with an outlook on future developments\, followed by a space for questions and open discussion.\nAnmeldeschluss: 2025-05-05

SUMMARY:EAA Seminar in Athens 'Understanding the Performance of an Insurance Company'
DESCRIPTION:Due 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 employee of the insurance sector\, understand how your company is functioning\, how its activity is measured via the balance sheet and the P&L\, what are the main regulations influencing this measure\, which indicators are used to assess the performance and what levers can improve this performance. \nThe aim of this workshop is to:\n– Present the functioning of an insurance company and the insurance and financial products it manages\n– Explain how to read and understand the different elements of an insurance balance sheet and P&L\, in local GAAP and in IFRS\n– Compute performance indicators used in different regulatory frameworks (Local GAAP\, IFRS and Solvency 2)\n– Understand the impact of risk mitigation (reinsurance) and ALM on the performance \nWe will cover life as well as non-life insurance. Health insurance will not be specifically covered.\nAnmeldeschluss: 2025-03-31
