Webinar: Revised ASOP No. 41: Actuarial Communications
March 23, 2011
12:00-1:30 p.m. Eastern
The recent release of a revision of ASOP No. 41, Actuarial Communications, brought important changes to the guidance relating to how actuaries communicate their work to intended users. Because of its broad application, ASOP No. 41 affects actuaries in every practice area. It is imperative for actuaries to understand this standard and the changes that went into effect. Attendees learned more about ASOP No. 41 and its guidance on a number of important issues, including:
- The revised requirements for actuarial communications;
- What constitutes an actuarial report, and how to deal with specific circumstances;
- Required disclosures; and
- Deviation from ASOP guidance.
This webinar was sponsored by the American Academy of Actuaries and is co-sponsored by ASPPA, CAS, CCA, and SOA.
