Call for Presentations for the aoc2020



For the first time, the international actuarial streaming platform actuview will be hosting its own online event on 21-25 September 2020 – the actuview online conference, aoc2020. This yearly conference will bring together stakeholders and experts from the global actuarial community to discuss the latest actuarial topics and more. The event is relevant to all actuaries worldwide and will be as easily accessible as actuview itself.



Under the overall theme “future | actuary”, the aoc2020 will feature a series of sessions on current developments in the actuarial profession and address future challenges for actuaries in- and outside the financial industry in the age of digital change. All partners and users of actuview, but also all other interested actuaries and experts from around the world are invited to participate and contribute to this central event on actuview.



The following topics are open for submission:




  • Challenges Ahead – Which Actuarial Services Will Be Essential? Where will actuarial knowledge be needed in the future? Which actuarial skills and methods will this include? Which traditional areas of actuarial practice will remain relevant, which will not? Will there be new fields making use of actuarial expertise? Will regulation limit or enhance the profession’s scope?

  • Machine or Actuary – Who Will Be the Expert? Which tasks will still require human actuarial input in the next decades? How far will Actuarial Artificial Intelligence go? How can we keep an overview with increasingly complex methods & models? Will consulting and controlling be the only remaining tasks for actuaries? Will non-actuaries enter the field?

  • Future Skills – What will be Relevant Aspects of Education & CPD? What will be the actuarial education (or educations?) of the future? What needs to be changed and what needs to stay in the core? What are relevant building blocks for life-long learning? And how can todays actuaries adapt and stay on top of new developments?

  • Common Ground – Will There Still Be One Profession? What does this digital transformation mean for the profession and the actuarial associations? Will membership grow and become more diverse? And how much diversity can one profession take?



These topics will be discussed in recorded sessions and live discussions. It is the goal to cover these key questions for the future of the actuarial profession from different perspectives and with diverse approaches. We are looking forward to your opinion!
