At the last election in 2015 the IFoA’s Policy Team worked hard to identify the key policy promises affecting the actuarial profession in the UK, broken down by party. This time we have divided the analysis by issues within the IFoA’s Key Policy Priorities (KPPs). These priorities are:
* Aging Population
* Resource and Environment
* Evolving Risk and the Future of Insurance
* Investing for Sustainable Growth

Under each of these priorities a series of policy issues has been identified where actuarial expertise can add value to the policy debate, or where the work of actuaries could be affected. To contextualise this, we have also included the IFoA’s position on each issue, based upon previous policy outputs from across the organisation.
For example, within the Investing for Sustainable Growth KPP we have identified infrastructure investment as a policy issue on which the main parties have differing viewpoints, and where actuaries can add a unique contribution to the policy debate.
It is our hope that the document will prove useful to actuaries who seek to understand how the parties’ aspirations for government may affect them, to members of the public seeking to understand important issues in an actuarial context, and policymakers seeking to enact the promises of their party in an informed way.
