Challenges for pricing actuaries
Building, deploying and making changes to models takes time
The development of effective pricing models necessitates multiple iterations to bring tangible value to underwriting and portfolio management. However, the presence of legacy technologies often acts as a constraint, impeding substantial impact on business operations.
Hard to assess business level performance
Actuaries are tasked with operationalizing the bigger picture view on risks, but integrating data from disparate sources and responding to an ever-evolving risk landscape makes building portfolio level reporting and analysis extremely challenging.
Difficult to enforce consistency and best practices
Robust governance frameworks and collaborative efforts are necessary to ensure adherence to business guidelines, standardize methodologies, and effectively share knowledge across teams. However, these efforts can be time-consuming and detract from core actuarial work.
