Joint Risk Management Section

The mission of this section is to advance the actuarial profession by assisting members of the section with the education, research, networking and other special needs that arise in the risk management section of actuarial science.

"I am convinced that ERM will take us deeper and closer to the business issues, and that ERM approaches will re-shape the future of actuaries. The CAS is fortunate to have many members and friends who are business leaders and researchers with rich experience and insights. I definitely encourage practicing actuaries to get actively involved in the process of learning and developing this new discipline."

-- Shaun Wang, FCAS, ASA
