ABOUT THIS WEBINAR

During the Academy's July 12 “Correlation Versus Causation: Clarifying the Differences & Implications,” our speakers led a discussion to:

• Distinguish correlation from causation;
• Identify the limitations of predictive models to demonstrate causation;
• Discuss challenges of relying only on correlations; and
• Explore important considerations and areas of collaboration for industry and regulators.

Speakers also touched upon the new Academy issue brief, An Actuarial View of Correlation and Causation—From Interpretation to Practice to Implications.
