Jennifer - Actuarial

Over the last two weeks I've been doing work on the Individual Capital Adequacy Standards (ICAS) framework.

We are currently finalising the figures for the board, so I have been carrying out various checks on the figures to ensure that all the information being presented is accurate and can be explained.

The FSA have recently released a paper, "ICAS – Lessons learned and looking ahead to Solvency 2". I'll spend today reading through this document and summarising it. For me it's really good timing, a month ago the letters "ICA" were familiar, but I hadn't done any work linked to it. Being able to spend time reading a document about ICAS, the results and figures of other company's ICA work and the expected future developments has been an opportunity for me to develop a good understanding of the measure which will hopefully set me in good stead for future work.

Now my exams have finished I need to spend time thinking about which courses I would like to study with a view to sitting them in the April session. I also have to update my "learning log", a record of my development and training within the office. To do this I'll need to speak with my boss and decide on two relevant questions to answer.
