An actuary is a business professional
who analyzes the financial consequences of
risk. Actuaries use mathematics, statistics,
and financial theory to study uncertain future
events, especially those of concern to insurance
and pension programs.
Actuaries may work for insurance
companies, consulting firms, government, employee
benefits departments of large corporations,
hospitals, banks and investment firms or more
generally, in businesses that need to manage
financial risk. A career as Actuary is better
described as a "business" career
with a mathematical basis than as a "technical"
mathematical career.
Actuaries love what they do.
Their work is intellectually challenging and
they are highly paid. Actuaries are key players
in the management team of the companies that
employ them. In a fast-changing world, with
new risks and the need for ever-more creative
ways to tackle them, there is the constant
opportunity for personal and professional
growth in an actuarial career and the pleasure
of life-long learning. Most actuaries work
in a pleasant environment, alongside other
professionals and enjoy the respect of their
peers.
This is why the actuarial profession has consistently
been rated as one of the top five jobs in
the United States according to Jobs Rated
Almanac.
