Description
Disability insurance (also known as "income protection" and "permanent health insurance" coverage) is a
subject of interest to actuaries from around the world. While the specifics of each international market are
quite different, the similarities are also striking. In all countries, for example, disability actuaries are
concerned with economic, occupational and medical trends—even if the specific factors vary considerably
from one country to the next.
In this session, speakers with experience in several different international markets provide an update on
the product, experience, and risk management trends that are of the most interest in various countries.
