Joint Regional Seminar 2022
Introduction
Welcome to the Joint Regional Seminar 2022.
The Joint Regional Seminar (JRS) is an
annual Life and Health Insurance event co-organized by the Institute and
Faculty of Actuaries and Actuaries Institute Australia with the support of the
local actuarial societies in the region. It is designed to assist actuaries and
other professionals to gain insights across the APAC markets and support their
continuous professional development (CPD) requirements.
Without a doubt, the first attempt to go
virtual in 2021 was a great success, with the “The Post-pandemic Actuarial
World” seminar attracting over 1,300 registrants.
The Conference Schedule
About four regional topics will be
selected for the first half-day regional program hosted
virtually in Hong Kong on 20 Sep. Each supporting association will then host
their own second half-day local program and the
format could be online or in-person as circumstances permit.

Theme
The rise of the actuarial profession can
be traced back to the late 17th century! For the past 200+
years, actuaries have been the fundamental backbone and critical stakeholder in
the operational and reporting functions of business covering the insurance,
enterprise risk management, regulatory framework and financial industry. However,
the APAC market is extremely dynamic and constantly evolving. There are much
hot topics and emerging trends to cover at this annual conference.
The JRS2022 will give APAC practitioners
the opportunity to gather, gain insights and discuss the theme amongst the
leading experts, fellow actuaries and senior executives in the region. To be
sustainable in the new insurance ecosystem, the profession needs to be
versatile and proficient in all business aspects. Hence, the theme this year
is “Sustainability - the ecosystem for the Insurance Industry”.
Call for Submission
We are calling for experts from all
insurance and financial background to discuss the theme and share insights of
their work with the APAC audience at the Regional Program on 20 Sep.
All selected speakers will be required to
complete a Speaker Acknowledgement and Release Form. The presentations/papers
and video records may be published on the organisers and supporting
organisations’ websites and made available to all participants of the JRS.
