CAS President’s Message Series

Posted on

Over the course of her presidency, CAS President Jessica Leong will be releasing a series of videos where she will be talking to distinguished actuaries who embody the new Envisioned Future for the CAS.

Every CAS president has the opportunity to share a president’s message in each issue of the Actuarial Review. While many presidents have used this space to share their insight on current events or deep dives on the profession, I’m trying something different. For my president’s messages, I’ll share interviews with actuaries who embody our new Envisioned Future, which says: “CAS members are sought after globally for their insights and ability to apply analytics to solve insurance and risk management problems.”

So far in the series Leong has interviewed Frank Chang, Head of Safety and Insurance Analytics at Uber and Kathy Antonello, Employers Holdings’ incoming CEO and the CAS president-elect. Access the interview series below or on the CAS YouTube channel!

President’s Message — From Actuary to CEO: A Conversation with Kathy Antonello
