Welcome!

Since the first edition of our International Conference "Meeting of Actuaries in Beirut: the Era of Actuarial Science" in 2017, the world has experienced several crises including the Covid-19 crisis in late 2019. Lebanon in particular is also experiencing an unprecedented economic and financial crisis. As a result, insurance companies should face several new challenges: how to maintain profitability, which currency for premium payment, how to ensure sustainability and pay reinsurers?

This symposium aims to answer all these challenges by proposing solutions adapted to the country's situation. The presentations given by professionals of the field from Lebanon and abroad as well as actuarial researchers from Saint Joseph University of Beirut and ISFA Graduate School of Actuarial Studies of Claude Bernard University - Lyon 1, will focus on IFRS17, the various health, economic and financial crisis, the Enterprise Risk Management, crisis and risks due to wars...
