Actuarial Interpretation of Model Output

As actuaries adopt increasingly complex data science techniques, it’s essential to remember that every model serves a specific business purpose. The best model isn’t always the one with the strongest statistical performance, but the one that aligns with business goals and delivers actionable insights. In this recorded webinar, we explore real-world modeling exercises, challenging viewers to translate complex charts into clear business outcomes. We also share examples where actuarial judgment should override model outputs and discuss key questions actuaries should ask when evaluating a model's effectiveness. Watch now to sharpen your skills in transforming data-driven insights into impactful business decisions.

Featured speaker:

Thomas Holmes, Chief Actuary - US Region at Akur8
