From 14-18 May 2018, Colin Wilson, the IFoA Immediate Past President and Derek Cribb, the IFoA CEO, visited Chengdu, Shanghai and Beijing after attending the 2018 IFoA Asia Conference in Bangkok. During the five-day trip, Colin and Derek met local IFoA members, partnership universities and industry representatives via several meetings and events. The trip forms part of the IFoA’s regular programme of visits to China and Southeast Asia, which gives the IFoA's president and executives an opportunity to engage with local members and stakeholders. You can visit our WeChat (ID: IFoAOfficial) for more details of the trip.

This is an exciting opportunity to join the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries (IFoA) inaugural Markets Development Board (MDB).  This new, and senior, board is being established to deliver the IFoA’s strategy, set by Council.

We now seek expressions of interest from members of the IFoA wishing to volunteer to be considered for membership of this important board. In addition, the IFoA would also like to appoint one lay member (i.e. non IFoA member) with direct global experience in this field.  The lay role is a paid role.  This individual will bring a valuable, and different, perspective to the board. (We ask IFoA members reading this advert to please highlight this opportunity to their colleagues and contacts with global markets development experience.) .

The application closing date is 25 January, 2018. For more information, please visit the IFoA official website.
