Actuarial Control Cycle 2 - ACST732

This unit, in conjunction with ACST731, develops and applies the actuarial principles and practices underlying the design, assessment, management and control of financial systems in the areas of life insurance, general insurance, and superannuation, as well as other less traditional areas of actuarial practice. The two units consider the process of actuarial and financial management including: product design, pricing, marketing, monitoring of experience, reserving, financing, solvency, surplus, and enterprise risk management. The commercial environment and professionalism are discussed. Students gaining a credit or higher in all of ACST731, ACST732 and ACST771 are eligible for exemption from Part II of the professional exams of the Institute of Actuaries of Australia.

A solid understanding of the development and application of actuarial principles and practices is a requirement for any advanced study in the actuarial studies area. This unit provides students with essential understanding of the actuarial principles and practices that develop the concepts and skills necessary for advanced research in actuarial studies.
