September edition of the actupool Careers Newsletter published
In this month’s newsletter we set focus on an area that for many of us is both literally and figuratively a paradise: The British Overseas Territory Bermuda has a lot to offer, not only for holidays, but also in a professional sense. The archipelago’s reputation as the “world’s risk capital” and as a safe haven for insurers, however, is controversial. From an actuary’s point of view, Bermuda is nevertheless very interesting and should be watched closely. Or maybe it should be experienced on side?
In our headline interview, Patrick McAleer, Director, International Actuarial at Emerald Group, looks at the motivations for insurers relocating to the island, investigates the resulting impacts on the global competition for talent and chances for actuaries by adding a posting abroad to their career profile. We have taken this topic as an opportunity to explore the pros and cons of working abroad in an offshore situation. Our topics are:
- Bermuda's evolution and its effects on the race for actuarial talent
- Working abroad: A unique experience, that needs consideration
- WTW’s Bermuda Market Review
