How can we help you?

We can provide insights for your business and sharpening your competitive edge.

Machine learning, data analytics, process intelligence and operational excellence provides tools for improving the actuarial processes. Together with our Digital Services colleagues, we can deliver data-based insights using these modern methods and have access to state-of-the-art techniques like robotic process automatization (RPA) and chatbots to help improve your processes.

Assurance and Model Validation
Accurate financial disclosures and investor analysis is the cornerstone of any successful insurance business. Our market leading experience, integration with audit and close links with regulators, make us uniquely placed to provide assurance over your actuarial calculations. SST internal model approvals and SII validations gives comfort to your boards to know you are meeting the regulatory requirements.
Capital Management
You get insights into effective risk management and how to optimise your capital management. This can provide opportunities to maximise new regulation and support your strategic ambitions. We can provide insights into your capital strategic and effective risk management critical to generating favourable and sustainable returns.
Health and Accident Insurance
You get end-to-end solutions which are tailored to your needs from the small niche player to the largest player. We can support you in order to comply with regulatory demands and provide latest solutions regarding value and risk based management, asset liability management, solvency modelling, pricing strategies, reserving, reinsurance, predictive health and robotics.
Life Insurance Companies and Pension Funds
The current phase of low interest rates is challenging for life insurers and pension funds, particularly under the high guarantees in the second pillar (BVG). Moreover, essential changes to the legal and regulatory framework create opportunities to adjust the tariff premiums and mitigate some of the interest rate risks. For example “Reform der Altersvorsorge 2020” allows the financing of the conversion losses through a longevity premium and demands a reduced margin in the risk premiums. We can provide you with analysis, financial modelling, and support in these regulatory matters.
Non-Life Reinsurance Companies
The non-life insurance environment is becoming increasingly dynamic, with profound changes to the demands on actuaries. The challenges faced by our clients include regulatory changes (e.g. StandRe), reporting standard changes (e.g. IFRS 17), premium rating of new risks (e.g. cyber), automation of actuarial systems and the incorporation of new analytical methods (e.g. machine learning). These changes impact the business in myriad ways, from new models and new processes to new profitability measures and KPIs. PwC’s experts are ready to support you, from assessing the financial and business impacts for your company through to the implementation of your solution.
Transactions
You get assistance on the end-to-end process, including deal identification, due diligence, actuarial appraisal and valuation, advice on accounting implications, negotiation and communication with regulatory authorities to achieve successful business transformation.
Gearing up for IFRS 17
On 18 May 2017, the IASB finalised its project on insurance accounting and published IFRS 17 which will fundamentally change the accounting for entities issuing insurance and investment contracts with discretionary participation features.
Experience Analysis
PwC has developed an Experience Analysis tool that allows pension funds and insurance companies to better understand the key drivers in their underlying population through highlighting the value in your data, its credibility, and how it compares with the market. You can explore how the business will develop in the future and what strategies you might want to employ.
