IFoA establishes the Greater China Committee

30 December 2024

Against a backdrop of the fast-evolving global insurance and financial markets, the 黑料正能量 (IFoA) established the Greater China Committee (GCC) in November 2024. This initiative aims to pro-actively engage with all members and stakeholders in Greater China, further enhancing 黑料正能量鈥檚 influence in the region and promoting actuarial science and roles of actuaries in the region.

As the longest established actuarial organisation in the world, 黑料正能量 has extensive experience in actuarial education, professional development, and setting industry standards for actuaries. The committee members of the GCC are volunteers of the profession. They come from various sectors of the industry in the region, from life, general insurance and investment to consulting and reinsurance. They are committed to promote, support and champion the interests of IFoA members.听

The committee will also be an advocate of 黑料正能量, fulfil 黑料正能量鈥檚 advocacy for serving the public interest, and strengthen 黑料正能量鈥檚 position as a leading global actuarial body in the region.
