Purpose

Almost all actuarial associations share a common objective: the need to involve young actuaries in their associations and to identify and motivate aspiring candidates to choose an actuarial career path. Consequently, most associations provide national activities and programs to engage with those communities and target groups.

In addition to this, there is a need to share individual expertise and best practices within the international partner network and join forces on a transnational scale where valuable.

To serve this goal, the Young Actuaries Initiative (YAI) has been started. It aims at fostering a broad exchange of actuarial associations committed to intensifying their interaction with young professionals and creating offerings together that go beyond the national horizon. Additionally, YAI will offer an access platform that facilitates exchange with peers from different associations, fostering a collaborative and enriching professional environment.
This pioneering endeavour, initiated by France and Germany with a strong multilateral perspective, is designed along three dimensions:

  1. Personal level
    Comprehensive individual career development and cross-border networking opportunities
  2. Professional level
    Contribute constructively to the shaping and development of tomorrow’s actuarial profession by attending or organising both physical and virtual events
  3. Intercultural level
    Enabling transnational community-building among young actuaries and embracing diversity through various unifying social activities
