Casualty Actuarial Society’s Envisioned Future (from the CAS Strategic Plan)
The CAS will be recognized globally as the premier organization in advancing the practice and application of casualty actuarial science and educating professionals in general insurance, including property-casualty and similar risk exposure.
Continuing Education Credits
The CAS Continuing Education Policy applies to all ACAS and FCAS members who provide actuarial services. Actuarial services are defined in the CAS Code of Professional Conduct as “professional services provided to a Principal by an individual acting in the capacity of an actuary. Such services include the rendering of advice, recommendations, findings or opinions based upon actuarial considerations.”
Members who are, or could be, subject to the continuing education requirements of a national actuarial organization may meet the requirements of the CAS Continuing Education Policy by satisfying the continuing education requirements established by a national actuarial organization recognized by the Policy.
This activity may qualify for up to 6* CE credits for CAS members. Participants should claim credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity. CAS members earn 1 CE credit per 50 minutes of educational session time, not to include breaks or lunch.
*Note: The amount of CE credit that can be earned for participating in this activity must be assessed by the individual attendee. It also may be different for individuals who are subject to the requirements of organizations other than the American Academy of Actuaries.

Reserving for Loyalty Programs Loyalty Programs issue points or miles to members, rewarding them for being loyal to their Hotel Brands and Airlines. These points/miles serve as a currency and represent an obligation to the programs that need to cover the cost of a potential award stay or flight into the future. Estimating future redemption rates is a non-trivial exercise; for programs that do not have expiration rules, members can redeem today points/miles that were earned 20+ years ago. For actuarial models to accurately estimate the liability associated with Loyalty programs they need to properly reflect changes in members’ redemption behavior over time, in light of programs evolution and rapidly changing external economic conditions. Our session will describe at a high level the structure of Loyalty programs, and present different models that can be used to assess these estimates, from simple to complex. Speakers:
