Potential scope of standards • Qualification standards - minimum educational and experience requirements (both initial education and continuing education); (e.g. Groupe Consultatif syllabus) • Ethical standards - requirements as to ethical conduct, such as integrity, objectivity and avoidance of conflict of interest; (e.g. Groupe Consultatif code) • Standards of duty and responsibility as a professional person, including: • Public interest standards - responsibilities towards those relying on actuarial output, and requirements to have regard to the interests of those affected by the advice; • Operational standards – requirements as to cooperation with and reliance on other experts, such as auditors and risk managers, quality control, peer review and whistle-blowing; and • Communication standards – standards concerning the communication of advice and reporting to the client and in public reports and statements of actuarial opinion. • Technical standards, including: • Interpretative standards - requirements regarding the detailed technical interpretation of all relevant forms of legislation or regulation in the context of the actuarial function; • Technical work standards – standards relating to how the function should be carried out, including choice of methodologies and assumptions, data standards, and appropriate ways of dealing with uncertainty;
Practitioner / Supervisor co-operation – a possible model • Practitioner (i.e. Groupe Consultatif) can initiate draft standards and expose these for consideration by supervisors and other stakeholders • Supervisor (i.e. CEIOPS) inevitably will be best placed to monitor compliance and enforce sanctions – probably to be achieved by endorsing standards as part of Level 3 guidance. Under de Larosiere, CEIOPS will have legal authority
Near –term work • Stakeholder meeting – 6 July – Key level 2 issues • Responding to Consultative Papers • Standards Task Force • QIS 5 Technical specification
