Revised Actuaries’ Code and Guidance now in effect

25 September 2025

An updated version of the Actuaries’ Code, reflecting diversity, equity and inclusion considerations, came into effect today. 

The Code and supporting Guidance were revised following a period of extensive engagement with members, employers, and other stakeholders, including two full formal consultations in 2023 and 2024.  

The revised Code clarifies the existing requirement to show respect, and now includes additional amplifications requiring IFoA members to speak up against unfair exclusion or treatment and specifically prohibiting the bullying, victimisation or harassment of others.  

The IFoA Regulatory Board believes these changes strike the right balance between ensuring that all members of the profession feel included and protected, while also respecting the full range of member perspectives on Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI). 

You can read the revised Code and Guidance on our Actuaries’ Code web page.  

Members with specific queries about application of the changes can contact our Professional and Regulatory Support Helpdesk
