The Brian Hey Prize 2021 - LocalGLMnet: interpretable deep learning for tabular data

In this webinar, the authors of the 2021 Brian Hey prize winning paper presented a new deep learning model called the LocalGLMnet. While deep learning models lead to very competitive regression models, often outperforming classical statistical models such as generalized linear models, the disadvantage is that deep learning solutions are difficult to interpret and explain, and variable selection is not easily possible. Inspired by the appealing structure of generalized linear models, we propose a new network architecture that shares similar features as generalized linear models, but provides superior predictive power benefiting from the art of representation learning. This new architecture allows for variable selection of tabular data and for interpretation of the calibrated deep learning model.

General Insurance Spring Conference 2021

Measuring and Monitoring Climate Change Risks
In this talk we explore how insurers can measure and monitor their climate change risk. We outline assessing exposures in a structured way and integrating risk monitoring into business-as-usual processes. Many insurers already struggle with having too many risk metrics to actively monitor and embed into business decisions. We discuss using climate change risk as an opportunity to optimise risk monitoring, encouraging increased engagement from the board and the wider business. The measurement of climate change risk from an insurer’s perspective is also a key challenge. To supplement the common method of scenario analysis, we propose a rating-factor driven approach that incorporates relativities by line of business, industry and geography. This approach relies on expert judgement and demands early engagement with the wider business, making it embedded by design. Intuitive and trackable “climate change risk scores” indicate the level of exposure and key risk drivers. Swarm intelligence can also be used to help parameterise the approach.

A Motor Fleet Risk Model from Public Data: An Insurtech’s Perspective
Claims data often forms the basis of our understanding of risk. But what if your risk model becomes so granular that you simply don’t have enough historical claims data to parameterise it with? Or what if the risks you’re insuring are changing too quickly for claims data to even be relevant at all? Flock argues for a modular, simulation-based approach to modelling risk. One which models individual claims events separately, where every claim event is parameterised using only external datasets. Flock’s motor risk model calculates a burning cost dependent on where, when and how a vehicle is driven, all without using any historical claims data. This talk will cover how we’ve used advanced simulation techniques together with Google Street View, computer vision, government-published datasets and vehicle-safety research to define a per-mile motor fleet risk model.

Risk pooling for disaster Response
Responding to disasters through risk pooling – providing an insight in to the rise of forecast based financing and how actuaries can help. This session will examine how humanitarian organisations can use forecast based financing and risk pooling principles, alongside mechanisms for transferring or sharing risks, to provide more efficient and effective funding for those most in need. The risks in this context are potential disasters caused by natural hazards in developing countries. This session will provide an overview of the Government Actuary’s Department’s work in this area and will showcase the ways that we can use actuarial techniques to improve the outcomes for vulnerable people in developing countries by using principles that are applicable to many areas of actuarial work. A basic level of technical knowledge in relation to risk pooling and insurance is required for this session.

Original Loss Curves
The aim is to demystify the origin and applications of Original Loss Curves. ILFs and First Loss Scales are widely used with London Market Insurance and Reinsurance pricing, however, new entrants or even established practitioners are often asked to use the curves without sufficient knowledge of the following: Information about the background and derivation of Original Loss Curves Data Limitations and common problems Examples of how they can be used in practice Practical information about where to source these curves. Can we source the data require to develop curves in a more efficient way?

Human Capital in a Pandemic
Resourcing is a constant concern for all professionals in the market and actuaries are no different. Delegates will gain information on how to attract the talent they need in this challenging environment but also for applicants to present themselves in best possible light to prospective employers. This will include knowledge on the changes in the working environment that have been accelerated by the pandemic. Areas will include: Interview process change Working environment alterations Regulatory developments The demand for non-life actuaries throughout this period The risks of not adapting to the new landscape.

Best use of Machine Learning within Reserving
There are significant opportunities to using machine learning (ML) to enhance insurers' reserving processes. This session will cover three key topics on ML within reserving: 1. A holistic vision for using machine learning within reserving • ML as a powerful tool within a modern reserving workflow • How best to apply ML in practice, and what to avoid 2. Case studies on how machine learning is already being used in reserving • How insurers are using ML to save time and improve decision making • Practical examples and how to overcome key challenges with introducing ML 3. A debate on what next for machine learning within reserving • What is the future for the human vs the robo actuary? • How best to manage potential ethical issues with ML for reserving?

Getting Better value from the Actuarial Function Opinions
Our recent market-wide survey of chief actuaries and NEDs found that many firms feel they don’t get sufficient value from the Actuarial Function opinions, particularly the opinion on underwriting policy. However, this is not universally the case and there are firms who say they get significant value from the process. Why the difference? If you’ve struggled to get value from your Actuarial Function opinions, or if you are interested in sharpening your own process, then this session is for you. We will share our detailed findings on best practice in this important area. We will look at the Actuarial Function Report itself as well as the underlying actuarial analyses, the links with key business processes (including business planning, reserving, pricing, risk management and others) and the relationship with the board. Most importantly, we will bring this all together in the form of practical steps that you can take to ensure that your Actuarial Opinions add real value in future.

Insurance and Actuarial Challenges with the sharing economy
For the past ten years actuaries have been struggling with sharing economy issues whether it be with ride sharing, car sharing, home sharing, talent sharing or other innovative new businesses. Our two speakers have significant experience in these specialties. Bernie Horovitz, an actuary turned business executive, started his own managing general agent (MGU) focusing on sharing exposures. Bernie has been working as a middleman between the the sharing companies and traditional insurers in developing appropriate insurance products. Francois Morissette has been tackling pricing and reserving issues for some of the largest sharing companies and traditional insurers. In a facilitated interview format our guests will discuss: sharing economy evolution insurance challenges with the sharing economy pricing challenges/considerations reserving challenges/consideration insurance operation challenges insured or self-insurance considerations how has COVID affected the sharing economy? what’s next for the sharing economy?

What makes a good reserving deep dive?
In recent years there has been a trend toward reserving using streamlined and semi-automated processes to do the heavy lifting, supported by deep dives in one or two topical areas. The optimal approach to the automated/mechanical part of these reserving processes has been widely discussed, particularly as an area for applied machine learning. In contrast, there has been relatively little focus on deep dives. Despite this, deep dives are critical for managing high risk or emerging risk areas of reserving, and are an area of actuarial work that our research shows boards value highly. This presentation will help actuaries and boards get more value from deep dives. Specifically we will cover: Insights into what boards value from deep dives and how to communicate them with maximum impact. How to prioritise areas for deep dives, ensuring a good mix of “proactive” and “reactive” investigations. Examples of common deep-dive pitfalls and how to avoid them. In this presentation, we will draw on LCP’s 2021 research into improving communication between actuaries and boards and 2019 “future of reserving” survey, as well as the presenters’ experience as members of the “Towards the Optimal Reserving Process” working party.

The Practicalities of Capital Allocation
Capital allocation is a key part of Solvency II and is required to be performed by each insurance undertaking as part of their annual ORSA. Over recent years, there has been increased focus on allocated capital from regulators (to ensure model stability and understanding of movements) and boards (to understand where best to deploy capital). There is no single capital allocation method that is best for all risk profiles, with the key challenge of separating movements due to changes in risk profile from simulation error. In this presentation, we will explore this topic from both a regulatory perspective and in-house perspectives. We will Begin by describing a number of ways of capital allocation methodologies and where we have seen these used. Explore in further detail the SpreadVaR approach that is typically used in the Lloyd’s market, with particular focus on the collar and stability of results. Explain practical approaches that insurance firms can take to better understand the movements in post-diversified capital requirements. The format of this event will be a presentation from 2 different perspectives: in-house and regulatory. We will only assume knowledge of statistical metrics; any further concepts will be introduced in the presentation.

Building your ESG Framework – what to know, and how to act!
ESG issues are now a significant focus for most Governments and Regulators. In particular, there are a number of regulatory requirements that need to be implemented over the course of 2021 and onwards. While many of us have a high-level awareness of the various issues at hand, we hope to provide a more detailed, tangible discussion around what sorts of things General Insurers should be thinking about and doing in this area. We will be providing an overview of these requirements and areas that need to be considered, such as: The different types of climate-risks that should be considered; The Bank of England climate-related stress tests; and Disclosures. Finally, we will be discussing what current ESG frameworks look like and what considerations should be taken in developing this framework further.

Machine Learning modelling on Triangles – worked example
Grainne McGuire and Jacky Poon from the Machine Learning in Reserving working party (MLR WP) will take you through their practical example of applying different machine learning (“ML”) models to a reserving data set using R. The goal is to illustrate a possible work flow in: setting up a data set for machine learning applying different ML models to this data tuning the ML hyper-parameters comparing and contrasting performance for the past fitted values and the future predictions. The data set used is a simulated traditional aggregate data set of a 40x40 triangle of incremental quarterly payments over 10 years. The features are accident, development and calendar periods. The presentation is introductory level, accompanied by a blog outlining the steps in detail, introducing the mlr3 package in R and providing code to allow the audience to recreate the examples in their own time. It should be noted that the focus of the session is to illustrate the use of the different models rather than try to find the best model for a specific ML method. The methods show-cased are: Decision trees Random forests XGBoost Lasso.

Introduction to Chaos Theory and Some applications for insurance
We have all heard about the butterfly effect and been mesmerised by multicoloured images of fractals, but what does any of this have to do with the serious world of financial modelling and insurance? Non-linear dynamics (or Chaos theory) has come a very long way in the twenty years since when it was initially popularised in the main stream media. It is now a well established and well studied field of science. There are some very compelling reasons for actuaries to pay close attention to recent developments in this field, not least because there are likely to be useful applications for actuarial work. As actuaries, we have long relied on probability theory to model uncertainty. But for many analyses, probability theory is a fairly blunt tool and discards a significant proportion of the information that can be extracted from a given data set. Non-linear dynamics offers an alternative approach to analyse a given data set and can reveal a lot more about the structure of the system or the process that generated the data. The aim of this presentation is to introduce some basic concepts in non-linear dynamics and discuss some applications for actuaries.

IFRS 17 Working Party update: how to explain the IFRS story
We are accelerating towards IFRS 17 reporting, bringing with it the complexities and challenges we all know and love. Whilst we have been focused on answering the technical questions and building the architecture to build the numbers, the time has come to work out how we are going to explain the numbers to management and the outside world. The jury is still out on what it means for general insurers KPIs and investor story. The objectives of IFRS 17 were to create greater transparency and comparability with other industries. However, analysts are yet to grasp the new standard and what it might mean for their analysis. Insurers will need to think about the three Cs: Clarity – providing a simple story with clarity across their different bases; Coherence – consistent and rationale story across reporting, strategy and performance management; Comparability – relevance and consistency of metrics across peers. We will consider how we will explain results to senior management, analysts and investors and other stakeholders - including the impact on existing KPIs as well as new KPIs that may come to bear.
