Overview

Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) has become a cornerstone of modern actuarial practice. As financial systems grow more interconnected, insurance products more complex, and regulatory demands more rigorous, the role of the actuary extends far beyond pricing policies and reserving for claims. Actuaries are now expected to anticipate, quantify, and strategically manage risks that can influence the solvency, sustainability, and long-term viability of entire organizations. This book-Book 7 in the Actuary Mastery Series II - The Advanced Collection-is dedicated to exploring ERM from an actuarial perspective. While ERM has broad applications across industries, actuaries occupy a unique position: they bring a blend of quantitative modeling expertise, regulatory awareness, and long-term strategic thinking that makes them indispensable to the design and implementation of effective risk frameworks. The chapters ahead will guide you through critical ERM concepts, including: Risk Appetite Frameworks - Defining and operationalizing an organization's tolerance for uncertainty. Regulatory Capital Requirements - Understanding frameworks such as Solvency II in Europe and Risk-Based Capital (RBC) in the United States. Stress Testing and Scenario Planning - Developing tools to evaluate resilience under adverse conditions and to inform capital allocation decisions. In addition to these technical aspects, we will also address the strategic dimension of ERM: how risk management aligns with corporate objectives, shareholder expectations, and regulatory scrutiny. My goal in writing this volume is twofold. First, to provide actuaries with a clear, structured resource that bridges theoretical frameworks and practical application. Second, to encourage the next generation of actuaries to see ERM not as a compliance exercise, but as a discipline that adds value to decision-making and strengthens the financial system as a whole. This book builds on the foundation of the earlier volumes in this series while preparing readers for more advanced applications in reserving, predictive analytics, and professionalism. Whether you are a student preparing for actuarial exams, a practicing actuary expanding into risk management, or a financial professional seeking actuarial insights into ERM, I trust that the material here will both challenge and equip you. As always, I invite you to approach these topics with curiosity, rigor, and a recognition of the responsibility actuaries bear in safeguarding financial stability. Oluchi Ike 2025
