50th Anniversary – Lifetime Achievement Recognition

As we celebrated our 50th anniversary, we reflected on the past 50 years and considered those members whose contributions over a lengthy period – including periods prior to the introduction of our “outstanding contribution” awards - had made a lasting impact on the Society and the actuarial profession.

Our “outstanding contribution” awards were introduced in 2012 and recognise members’ contributions to the Society’s work over the three years prior to an award.

The Society’s President, Sheelagh Malin, has prepared a short video to share details of our plans to recognise and celebrate our 50th Anniversary year in 2022.
