An important aspect of the Actuarial Profession's sessional research programme is to enable reasoned debate to take place on issues of importance to actuaries and users of actuarial services especially where a range of views is expected and where some views may be thought controversial.  This paper, by Chris O'Brien opens a powerful debate on potentially controversial views.   With the FSA launching its consultation on 23 February 2011 on proposals to strengthen its existing rules on with-profits to improve protection for policyholders, the timing of this paper and the opportunity for debate is particularly helpful, and we would encourage all those with an interest to engage actively by attending this sessional research meeting.
