Whistleblowing
The Institute and Faculty of Actuaries (IFoA) recognises that, from time to time, its members may be faced with difficult decisions about reporting certain matters which come to their attention.
It is important that members feel able to cope with those situations and report relevant information, when required.
Ensuring that the IFoA's members, and those for whom they work, have the tools and support to deal with whistleblowing situations is not only of benefit to members and the IFoA but, crucially, also helps to protect the public interest.
Guidance materials
For that reason, the IFoA has produced the following guides, one aimed at actuaries and the other at those organisations which employ actuaries:
Confidential helpline
The IFoA has also put in place a confidential advice line which is provided by the whistleblowing charity, Public Concern at Work. All calls are answered by staff experienced in advising on when and how best to raise concerns.
You can contact the advice line on 0800 223 0177.

If you wish to report any whistleblowing concerns or have any queries on whistleblowing generally or the content of the guides above, please contact the IFoA at whistleblowing@actuaries.org.uk.
