The number and diversity of developing topics in the insurance industry keeps growing and insurers’ demand for specialist actuarial expertise represents a challenge.
IFRS 17 has put a significant strain in the resources of insurance companies and the pace of change and need for action is not expected to diminish. The Central Bank’s requirement for pre-emptive recovery planning and the review of differential pricing put additional demands on the industry in the near term. EIOPA’s review of Solvency II and reporting requirements as well as the incoming legislation of artificial intelligence and use of machine learning in insurance might mean that constant change is the new normal and insurance companies need to update to allow for it in their business as usual.
