Non-life Insurance

General Insurance

The non-life (general) insurance industry provides actuaries with opportunities to build their careers in a wide range of specialities and disciplines. 


General insurance provides professionals with a unique opportunity to take on a meaningful role in the insurance landscape and make an impact on tackling global challenges.

Actuaries working in this sector tend to provide advice in three main areas: pricing; reserving; and capital modelling. In addition, actuaries are becoming increasingly involved in catastrophe modelling and wider enterprise risk management (ERM).

General insurance is called ‘property and casualty insurance' in the United States of America and ‘non-life insurance’ in most of Europe.

Contact Our Non-life Team

You are not limited to non-life insurance! You can change your actuarial career path.

Fancy a change to a different sector?

As a non-life actuary or trainee actuary you are not limited to non-life insurance. We have various opportunities for strong non-life candidates to move out of traditional non-life work into either wider-fields, life insurance, pensions or investment fields.

We have successfully helped many actuaries make this transition. Provided you are making good progress with your career and the exams, crossing over from one actuarial sector to another is something we have experience of, and can guide you through the process to help you make the right change. 

Whether you want to move from non-life to wider-fields, healthcare, life insurance, investment or pensions, we can support you on your journey.
