Share your research

Sharing your findings is an essential part of the research process - by communicating your research to Institute and Faculty of Actuaries (IFoA) members, practitioners and the wider community your findings will have greater impact

Submit your paper to Annals of Actuarial Science

Annals of Actuarial Science publishes papers in all areas of actuarial research, particularly papers that are applied in nature.

Publishing in a peer-reviewed journal such as Annals of Actuarial Science provides a number of benefits. The peer-review process provides the opportunity to optimise the quality of your research paper and your research will have increased visibility and credibility.

Submit your paper to conferences

Conferences provide an important opportunity to share your research with other members and professionals in your field. For early-stage research they offer a valuable chance to obtain feedback and input on your work. For work nearing completion, presenting at a conference can publicise your research and address questions to deepen the understanding of your results. IFoA holds six residential conferences a year.
