A forum for actuaries has been launched to help the profession come together and learn how best to respond to the deadly coronavirus sweeping the world.

We are living in an extraordinary time. The COVID-19 crisis will be the defining event of our lifetime and could well be humanity’s burning platform for change.

This newly formed COVID-19 ARG aims to share information quickly to help actuaries seeking to understand the coronavirus pandemic. 

This is a dynamic and multifaceted subject, and we plan to stick closely to areas where we have some expertise, and which are relevant to our profession’s role in society.
