We are excited to announce the opening of the 1^st Young Actuaries World Cup (YAWC). The Young Actuaries World Cup is a friendly competition open to actuaries or actuarial students, under 35 years old and members of an IAA member association, interested to share their ideas or work.

YAWC participants are asked to submit a video no longer than 7 minutes long on the theme “Bridge to Tomorrow”, which can be interpreted in many ways by the participants, may it be on climate issues, new products, new areas of actuarial practice or in general how actuaries can contribute to a better society. The 4 finalists of the competition will be invited to play the finals at the ICA 2023 in Sydney. We will cover their airfare, ICA registration and accommodation.

Competition Theme: 

The YAWC theme is aligned with the ICA 2023 theme: "Bridge to Tomorrow"
Participants can make their own interpretation of the theme which could cover issues such as but not limited to:

• New Areas in which actuarial skills are being used.
• How actuaries can contribute to a better society.
• Innovative ways of tackling some big issues.
• The opportunities and limits of data analytics and AI.
• Formula or mathematical equation: could be an innovative design or a new usage.
• Product : present a new product or give to an existing one a new usage or new features, etc.
