STAY TUNED! If you are anticipating additional search filters by attribute and level to align with the CAS Capability Model, it is coming later this Summer. As the CAS begins to code recorded sessions by specific attributes and levels (starting with the 2023 Annual Meeting), these will be tagged in the CAS database of presentations going forward and should be searchable.

But you may use the Capability Model now to help you identify topics. For example, if you want to move up one level under the content area “Functional Expertise,” you may search topics in the particular functional area to expand your knowledge.

RP1: Unfair Discrimination - How will new legislation in Colorado influence the industry approach to potential bias in insurance?

The General Assembly of the State of Colorado enacted legislation to "ensure that all Colorado residents have fair and equitable access to insurance products" by prohibiting unfair discrimination on the basis of several protected class characteristics. In doing so, they laid out a new definition of "unfair discrimination" which regulators in the state and insurance industry participants are now working to bring to life. This session will delve into some of the juicy questions that actuaries and insurance industry professionals must answer to comply with this new legislation. We will also explore the implications of this legislation on the broader insurance industry and regulatory debate on race and insurance pricing.

RM2: Using Mathematical Models to Model Infectious Disease Transmission and Dynamics in the Insurance Industry

The emergence and re-emergence of infectious diseases keeps reminding us of the importance of access to accurate tools to measure the potential risks we may take during large outbreaks and pandemics. Mathematical modeling of infectious disease transmission provides us with a tool to help understand the impact of pandemics in terms of the number of potential cases and deaths along with the variation of medical outcomes and their financial impact. In this session, we will discuss current pandemic-modeling techniques, including the role of the COVID-19 pandemic on our approach to modeling, along with some use cases in the insurance industry. We will also emphasize the importance of effective communication between modelers and decision-makers to optimize the value of pandemic modeling and risk estimation.

PIE6: How Actuaries Should Be Thinking About InsurTech

There is significant potential for actuaries to serve as the bridge between the InsurTech industry and traditional insurers and/or serve as industry experts within InsurTech firms.

The session begins by providing a framework and information on the fundamentals of InsurTech, including background on the insurance value chain and the different technologies in use in the InsurTech space. It examines key drivers of this growth include technology trends such as wearable devices, digital customer experiences, technology supporting analytics and automation. Finally the sessions summarizes conversations with practitioners in the InsurTech space, many of whom saw the broad insurance industry knowledge of actuaries as something that could bring significant value to the InsurTech space.
