The Next Frontier: Actuaries Beyond Boundaries

Four days at Sarova Whitesands Beach Resort and Spa, Mombasa, where the East African actuarial profession sets the agenda for the year ahead. Policy, capital, climate, technology — examined together, by the people who actually build the models that price and protect.

The 11th edition pushes past the traditional perimeter: actuaries crossing into climate finance, AI governance, embedded insurance, and policy design — practising beyond the boundaries of where the profession has historically stayed.

The programme

Four days, one continuous conversation.

Each day takes one half of the profession's map. Single-track sessions; no clashes — the room moves together.

  1. Day 1 · Tuesday, Sep 29

    Public policy & social protection

    • NHIF / SHIF transition and the actuary's role in financing health
    • Climate-resilient social protection: parametric covers for smallholders
    • Pensions reform in East Africa: defined-contribution at scale
    • Consumer protection and price discrimination — where actuaries draw the line
  2. Day 2 · Wednesday, Sep 30

    Financial markets, banking & insurance regulation

    • IFRS 17: two years in, what the audits are flagging
    • Reserving under inflation and FX volatility
    • Capital adequacy frameworks across EAC regulators
    • The investment book: actuarial input on ALM and credit
  3. Day 3 · Thursday, Oct 1

    Technology, AI & frontier risks

    • Putting AI into actuarial production responsibly
    • Climate risk: physical, transition, and litigation exposures
    • The actuary as a business architect — beyond reserving
    • Newly-qualified actuaries: research showcase
  4. Day 4 · Friday, Oct 2

    Beyond boundaries · synthesis, networking, closing

    • Plenary: closing the loop — commitments from each working party
    • Cross-border practice: an East African actuarial passport
    • Awards & recognition luncheon
    • Networking and informal half-day · poolside close
