valuation of certain and probabilistic cash flows (including life contingencies, financial derivatives and loss models);

actuarial modeling techniques;

insurance pricing and reserving (for both life/health/benefits and P&C insurance);

data analytics and predictive modeling;

Future Career

Using complex statistical analysis, actuaries measure potential financial risks for an array of organizations, including health insurance, life insurance and property insurance companies. After determining the probability of undesirable events such as financial risk, actuaries recommend methods of avoiding or reducing the impact of those events. The actuarial arm of a company is essential to organizational growth and sustainability in any dynamic industry.
