Actuarial Risk

Actuarial risk is the possibility that assumptions made by actuaries?such as life expectancy, accident rates, or claim frequency?may turn out to be incorrect. These miscalculations can lead to premiums being too low to cover actual losses, affecting an insurer’s profitability and financial stability. Accurate modeling is essential to minimize this type of risk.
