WEB SESSION

16/17 Nov 2023

Practical Techniques from Asset Management Less Known to Actuaries

Various practical techniques and insights used in institutional asset management are less known to actuarially trained persons. As is often the case with practical applications, when you have seen an example, you appreciate a method.
The course is divided into two-morning sessions from 9:00 to 12:30 with a half-hour break.

Organised by the EAA – European Actuarial Academy GmbH.

Participants

The online course suits any actuarially trained person interested in learning simple and effective techniques. The web session is particularly beneficial for someone who has been working for five years or more and wants to broaden her/his skills as a senior. There are no technical requirements, but some experience with Excel and Python is helpful.
The course has little added value if one wants to prepare for a CFA or risk management certificate.

Technical Requirements
Please check with your IT department if your firewall and computer settings support web session participation (the programme Zoom will be used for this online training). Please also make sure that you are joining the web session with a stable internet connection.

Purpose and Nature

The course has two aims. Foremost the goal is to illustrate practical examples of handy techniques. Furthermore, familiarity with a process or method is only helpful if the background and conditions are elucidated.

Some techniques covered are:

  • A method to arrive at a well-considered choice.
  • Insight into the application of Chaos Theory.
  • An extended version of the well-known SWOT method.
  • Visual aid for a project and progress control.
  • Parameterization of the yield curve.
  • Transforming liability cash flows into an investable portfolio.
  • A saddle point as optimum.

Language

The language of the web session will be English.
