APRA Proposal
“The purpose of the Appointed Actuary role is to ensure that the board has unfettered access to expert and impartial actuarial advice and review, to assist with the sound and prudent management of an insurer and that the insurer gives adequate consideration to the protection of policyholder interests.
The Appointed Actuary must have the necessary authority, seniority and adequate support to ensure their views are considered seriously by the board and they are able to make a significant contribution to the debate of strategic issues at the executive level. The Appointed Actuary plays a key role in, and provides effective challenge to, the activities and decisions that may materially affect the insurer’s financial condition as well as its treatment of policyholders.”

Challenges we face
• Communication
• Seen as technical experts
• Getting a seat at the table
• Building relationships
• Pre conceived notions and ideas of actuaries
– Too prescriptive?
– Too conservative?
