More actuaries are becoming CEOs

Lately we have seen a few actuaries who have been made CEO in the Malaysian market. Based on our knowledge, currently (or in the near future):
  • 4 out of 15 conventional life insurance companies CEOs are actuaries
  • 2 out of 8 takaful CEOs are actuaries
In the 90's, there were also quite a number of CEOs who were actuaries. In late 90's and early 2000 however, marketing/agency/sales people were the favourite pick for CEO. The trend has since reversed partly due to the introduction of RBC which requires the chieftains to be well versed in risk and capital management.

Increasingly there are also more actuaries who become CFOs.

Good to see actuaries and professionals taking the helm rather than the fads of karaoke salesmen that come and go.......in full support of professionals!
