Welcome to the Joint Risk Management Section

The Society of Actuaries (SOA) , the Casualty Actuarial Society (CAS) and the Canadian Institute of Actuaries (CIA) jointly sponsor the SOA's Risk Management Section. The purpose of this section is to further education and research in the area of risk management and establish leading risk management techniques.

Section members enjoy the Risk Management Newsletter (in English and French), access to members-only LinkedIn discussions, networking events and educational meetings and seminars.

This section will be rehomed into the Investment and Risk Management Community beginning fall 2025. Find out more about the benefits of Communities.
