About life insurance
The actuarial profession is a key player in life insurance. In Australia, over a quarter of actuaries are working in this field.
Life insurance actuaries play a crucial role in creating sustainable products and managing business operations effectively. Besides advising on premiums and product design, assessing risks, and evaluating profitability and distributing surpluses, life actuaries also hold roles in management, strategy, corporate operations, data science, oversight and financial control.
The life insurance sector constantly evolves due to changes in laws, regulations, financial reporting and mergers. It's a statutory obligation for an Appointed Actuary to provide reports on the financial robustness of a Life Insurance Company.
