Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, July 30, 2024 --(PR.com)-- The SOA Asia-Pacific Annual Symposium is a prestigious actuarial event that took place in the Four Seasons Hotel, Kuala Lumpur from 12-13 June.

The two-day programme was organized by the Society of Actuaries (SOA), with the theme “Embracing the New Norm - Beyond Actuarial Frontier”. This symposium aimed to act as a networking platform for professionals in the Asia-Pacific region to share their experiences in the actuarial, finance and insurance industries. Experienced professionals, speakers and experts were invited to share their professional insights on the future of the industry, including Actomate’s Founder & Actuary, Nicholas Yeo.
