Actuary
Responsible investing: time to consider environmental, social and governance factors?
In many instances, it’s no longer enough to just look at the financials – the profits, dividends and returns on investment. Instead, people are increasingly considering how these returns have been earned.

Welcome to the world of actuaries in government!
Actuaries are financial risk professionals, and at the Government Actuary’s Department (GAD) we provide impartial actuarial analysis to government and public sector clients. Our expertise covers insurance, investment, modelling, quality assurance, data science, pensions and social security.
