This is a video recording of a webinar we held in November 2022

Nothing stays the same forever – including mortality rates! The recent past can tell us a lot about the near future, but how should we go about projecting longevity improvements in the long term? And how much attention do we really pay to the long term assumptions baked into our actuarial mortality projection models?

During this webinar, Club Vita and a distinguished international panel explored the theory and practice of setting long term longevity improvements. We first gave an overview of methods available for actuaries in setting long term rates and then heard from our expert panel about considerations and methods that have been implemented in practice in Canada, the UK and the US.
