Web Session "Whistleblowing - Practical Education for
Actuaries" on 8 December 2022
Early Bird until Thursday, 27 October 2022!
Due to an illness of the instructor, this course, originally
planned for October 24, had to be postponed to December 8. All
those who were not able to attend the session in October are
invited to join us on December 8. You can still book this session
with our early bird discount.
The purpose of this online training is to prepare actuaries for
situations where they might need to speak up or blow the
whistle.
A natural part of professional actuarial work is dealing with
conflicts and dilemmas. The web session is a mixture of theory,
practical examples and lessons from others who have blown the
whistle.
The web session will include breakout sessions to discuss
materials covered and to enable participants to share their own
experiences.
Our topics will be:
- Protecting your career and meeting your
professional responsibilities
- Techniques to resolve professional
dilemmas
- Examples of the applying the
techniques
- Lessons from real-life
whistleblowers

Web Session "How Can Actuaries Tackle Inflation and its
Consequences?" on 8 February 2023
It is not that long ago that even ECB-Directors were clearly
stating that the heightened inflation rates were only temporary.
Even shortly before Christmas 2021 this statement was firmly
positioned. It did not hold for long in 2022.
What are the main drivers for the change of opinion? Without being
exhaustive the following points can be mentioned:
- Central Bank's quantitative easing
actions
- Increase of energy prices (esp. oil and
gas)
- Increase of Wheat prices
- Increase of prices of
semiconductors
These effects were significantly stressed by:
- The war in the Ukraine
- The ESG effects (Carbon certificates and
pricing increases due to tax effects over CO2 levies).
Inflation comes with many challenges for businesses in general
and insurance business in particular. Due to the long term nature
of the business inflation can be very toxic. This is especially
true for situation of negative real interest rates, which we have
seen for some time now. The situation has changed since the Ukraine
war. The FED and the ECB have increased interest rates just
recently. Real rates are still negative.
The learning objectives of this course are:
- Understand the various forms of
inflation and its historical impact
- Understand the drivers for inflation and
the indicators to be monitored
- Practise the vulnerability analysis of
the business model
- Understand the potential risk mitigation
actions
