The web session 'A Refresher Course in Financial Mathematics' gives an introduction to modern financial mathematics and derivative pricing. It is designed to prepare actuaries without adequate training in these fields for the quantitative parts of the CERA education. The web session is moreover an ideal learning opportunity for actuaries who want to become acquainted […]

Generative AI (GenAI) tools such as ChatGPT are rapidly reshaping how actuaries approach problem-solving, analysis, and communication. Beyond their familiar chat interfaces, these tools offer far more powerful capabilities through programmatic access, allowing users to interact directly with the underlying Large Language Models (LLMs) via APIs (Application Programming Interfaces). Compared with manual, web-based use, API […]

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. Pricing is the central link between solvency, profitability and market shares (volume). Improving pricing practice encompasses several dimensions: - Technical: is our pricing adequate to cover the […]

In life and protection insurance, accurately assessing mortality is a cornerstone of pricing, reserving, and risk management. Standard mortality tables provide a useful benchmark but often fail to reflect the specific characteristics of an insurer’s portfolio. As a result, insurers increasingly rely on experience-based mortality tables to better capture their own risk profile. However, building […]

Actuarial work is full of tasks that are technically routine but stubbornly manual: rebuilding a Solvency II balance sheet, regenerating year-end reporting and QRTs, reconciling a cashflow model against the numbers it is supposed to reproduce, refreshing an MI dashboard, or standing up a small tool to answer a one-off question from the business. Each […]

This is part one 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 […]

Deep learning has become the core engine of modern AI, enabling models to learn rich, non linear patterns directly from data. In recent years, this paradigm has scaled into a new generation of systems capable of generating text, solving problems, and interacting in natural language: Large Language Models (LLMs). Participants will revisit, during this 3-hour […]

The aim of this training is to Define what ALM is and describe the typical missions of an ALM department in an insurance company Present the financial risks on which ALM classically focus as well as the requirements of the Solvency II regulation for insurance companies Describe the essential quantitative ALM tools and methods used […]
