ABOUT THIS WEBINAR

A wide range of topics were discussed, including:

The Code and the ASOPs;
The ASB’s process for developing and revising ASOPs;
ASOP No. 1 and the rules of the road;
Key definitions in every ASOP;
The structure of professional judgment;
Actuarial communications;
Disclosure; and
Deviation and reliance.
