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

SUMMARY:EAA Web Session 'Worldwide Mortality: From Historical Trends to Future Projections'
DESCRIPTION:Life expectancy is a key metric for understanding mortality trends and it varies widely depending on factors such as age\, gender and geography. During this websession\, we will delve into the latest research and data on mortality trends and explore how they have changed over time. \nSince the middle of the 20th century\, world-wide mortality has steadily improved\, but not at the same rate in all regions\, so that clear differences can be recognised between countries. In some OECD – countries\, there has even been a recent decline in mortality improvement\, and the COVID-19 pandemic has at least temporarily reinforced this trend. \nWe analyse different age groups\, their causes of death and how they coincide with mortality developments. In addition to that\, we will discuss the drivers behind changes in mortality\, such as advances in medicine and public health\, changes in lifestyle and socioeconomic factors.\nUnderstanding the various drivers of mortality is essential for predicting future trends and consequently for the assessment of the biometric risk in life- and pension insurance. \nOur online training will also explore the implications of changing life expectancies for our work as actuaries. We will discuss how we can use data and analysis to better understand these changes and make informed decisions about the future. In this context\, we also outline the strengths and limitations of the Lee-Carter model as a widely used model for predicting future mortality rates. \nLast but not least\, we discuss general uncertainties around future mortality\, where we focus especially on the demographic and geographical factors analysed in the first part of the lecture.\nAnmeldeschluss: 2025-01-21

SUMMARY:EAA Web Session 'Stochastic Projection Models in Life Insurance'
DESCRIPTION:This web session provides an overview of three conceptually different approaches for stochastic life insurance projection models currently observable in the market. It compares their key ideas\, explains their strengths & challenges\, and introduces the underlying mathematical / actuarial methodologies. Concerning the application of the comparably little-known Liability-2-Step approach\, the session will present the operational experience of an Austrian insurance company. Although the comparison of the modelling approaches will mainly be conducted from the viewpoint of Solvency II reporting\, the session will also discuss their applicability as basis for the integration of external financial reporting with internal planning and performance management. \nAnmeldeschluss: 2024-12-11 \nLink: https://actuarial-academy.com/seminars/seminar?No=E0448

SUMMARY:EAA Web Session Inflation Risk Management
DESCRIPTION:Over the last five years many countries have seen substantial swings in inflation. This volatility\, following an extended period of relative stability\, has reminded actuaries that unexpected changes in inflation rates can have big implications for organisations that they work for. \nInsurers and pension funds wanting to manage inflation risks will typically find it beneficial to approach this task from a range of perspectives. They will likely want to explore recent as well as more historic inflation experiences and the roles played by different actors as well as by broader social and economic trends. They may also want to draw on stylised descriptions of how inflation might be expected to impact assets and liabilities. They then should bear in mind that actual behaviours of many assets and liabilities in past inflationary and deflationary periods have often only loosely corresponded to such stylised descriptions. \nRisk management is\, of course\, ultimately more about seeking to optimise what happens in the future rather than about explaining what went on in the past. So\, in this web session we will introduce the contexts referred to above and we will also explore approaches that can be used by insurers to model\, manage and hedge risks arising from unexpected changes in inflation rates. In some cases\, the inflationary link may be explicit (e.g. if claims include direct inflation indexation clauses). In other cases\, the link may be less precise or more indirect\, but these risks may still need highlighting and exploring if risk management is to be successful.\nAnmeldeschluss: 2024-12-08\nLink: https://actuarial-academy.com/seminars/seminar?No=E0464

SUMMARY:EAA Web Session 'Life Biometric Assumptions: Bringing Together New & Classic Methods'
DESCRIPTION:Advances in data analytics techniques\, along with greater availability of data\, have significantly impacted many industries. However\, in insurance\, these advances merely add to the technical foundations upon which the industry was built. It is only recently that modern data analytics techniques have begun to impact insurance companies\, especially in the work actuaries do. \nThe impact has been even slower to emerge in the life insurance sector where\, due to the nature of the business\, there is significantly less claims and exposure data available compared to non-life insurance. As a result\, classic data analytics techniques and data sources are still key to the work actuaries do\, especially when developing biometric assumptions. However\, given the important role biometric assumptions play in the success of a company\, it is important to understand how and if these new techniques should be applied. \nTo help make sense of the evolving landscape\, this web session looks at the various components of life biometric assumptions (e.g. mortality tables\, adjustment factors\, improvement factors\, etc.). For each component the potential sources of internal and external data will be explored. From there the value of classic data analytics techniques\, particularly credibility theory\, will be discussed\, as well as modern techniques\, such as machine learning. All of this will be brought together to give an understanding of the benefits\, drawbacks\, and pitfalls of the various data sources and analytics techniques\, including considerations for data privacy and discrimination. The participants can then use this knowledge to effectively gain the benefits from each based on the quality and quantity of data available within their company and its market.\nAnmeldeschluss: 2024-12-03\nLink: https://actuarial-academy.com/seminars/seminar?No=E0455
