The Canadian Institute of Actuaries (CIA), the national voice of the actuarial profession in Canada, is celebrating 50 years.
“The institute’s success at helping shape 50 years of Canadian public policy comes down to the commitment and excellence of its members,” says CIA president Jacques Tremblay. “Without them, there would be no CIA.”
It was 50 years ago today that federal Senate Bill S-45 was given royal assent, thus creating the CIA, which now has more than 5,000 members.
Since 1852, when the first actuary in Canada was qualified, the profession has helped secure the financial future of Canadians and Canada. Every pension plan, social program and insurance policy, the Canada/Quebec Pension Plans, workers’ compensation programs and Medicare, have actuarial fingerprints on them.
