    Insurance, Financial and Actuarial Analysis

    About

    Overview  Since its inception, the program has attracted among the most outstanding and academically accomplished students in Hong Kong.Elementary courses in the Insurance, Financial and Actuarial Analysis program at The Chinese University of Hong Kong focus on fundamental business, economics, mathematics and statistics, and provide students with the necessary grounding for advanced courses that follow. Subsequent insurance, and finance courses further broaden students’ knowledge in related areas by introducing insurance products, financial markets and derivative securities as well as basic principles in financial risk management. Career Actuaries serve the broader financial community by bringing their expertise in mathematics, statistics, and financial theory to the quantification and evaluation of risks that are related to uncertain future events. This expertise is particularly valuable in relation to insurance and pension programs. Actuaries may work for insurance companies, consulting firms, government bodies/agencies or in the employee benefits departments of large corporations, banks, and investment firms. In fact, any business that has substantial financial risk to manage will benefit from the services of an actuary.The first step toward a career as an actuary is to study in an actuarial (or actuarial-based) program such as our IFAA program, which offers students the opportunity to pass four or more of the actuarial exams that are held by the Society of Actuaries or the Casualty Actuarial Society and Institute and Faculty of Actuaries. Most employers in Hong Kong require university graduates to pass two or more of these examinations. Students who have passed four or more are very marketable upon graduation. Employers generally prefer their junior actuaries to gain knowledge and experience while working and are, therefore, likely to be supportive of exam-related studies.
