Professional Saver Specialist Insurance for Actuaries


Our standard cover is:

  • £1 million cover for public and products liability (with an option to increase to £2 million, £5 million or £10 million)
  • £10,000 cover for any financial loss (£50K cover optional)
  • Worldwide liability cover for temporary work abroad for up to 14 days (excluding the USA and Canada)

As an actuary providing specialist statistical and financial modelling services to corporate clients, professional indemnity insurance* is essential to protect your business if a client pursues legal action over financial losses attributed to your actuarial work.

Our actuary insurance covers defence costs and compensation claims in scenarios such as a pension scheme shortfall, inaccurate pricing models for insurance products, flawed investment projections leading to losses, and errors in calculating policy liabilities. 

We offer protection so you can provide assured actuarial services, knowing we will handle potential professional negligence claims as your insurer.

As standard, our public liability insurance covers injury and property damage that occurs at a client’s premises during meetings and consultations. For example, protection if your laptop damages a boardroom table or a client trips over your briefcase.

What Is Actuary Insurance?

Actuary insurance protects professionals who provide statistical modelling and analytical services to corporate clients in areas like:

  • Pension scheme analysis and forecasts
  • Insurance product pricing and risk models
  • Investment and securities projections
  • Quantitative modelling for banks and lenders
  • Mortality rate data and life expectancy metrics
  • Climate risk analysis for property and infrastructure
  • Enterprise risk management frameworks

Robust coverage is vital for actuaries as complex numerical analysis with long-term forecasts means the potential for financial errors leading to significant losses is high. This can prompt clients to pursue substantial pay-outs through legal means. Actuary insurance protects against legal costs and claims if an actuary’s mistake causes financial loss, as outlined in their contract.

Why Do Actuaries Need Liability Insurance?

As an actuary, your specialist risk analysis and predictive modelling informs major corporate decisions involving substantial sums of money. However, mistakes can happen—for example, pension scheme liability calculations could be inaccurate, investment forecasts may be overly optimistic, or complex quantitative risk models could have flaws.

Without liability insurance, even a rare substantial error leading to significant financial losses could put your entire actuarial consultancy at risk if a client pursues legal action and demands compensation. Robust insurance coverage takes this risk off the table, allowing you to focus wholly on assured, high-quality modelling services for your clients.

Our actuary insurance provides peace of mind that you’ll be covered financially for any claims made against you.

What Does Actuary Insurance Cover?

Our actuary insurance protects against:

  • Public Liability (standard) – Provides protection if a client suffers physical injury or property damage because of your negligence during a consultation, site visit or meeting on their premises. For example, you knock over a glass vase or your client trips over your equipment.
  • Legal Expenses (standard) – Pays legal costs to defend you against covered civil claims from clients seeking compensation.
  • Professional Indemnity (optional separate policy) – Protects against financial claims if your advice or calculations, like pricing, forecasts, or risk assessments, turn out wrong (under contract). This includes legal fees and any compensation you have to pay.

FAQs

Actuary Insurance FAQs

Typical actuarial errors we cover include:

  • Inaccurate longevity and mortality rate models used to forecast pension scheme liabilities
  • Flaws in annuity pricing and risk models leading to insurance product losses
  • Overly optimistic investment return predictions resulting in financial loss
  • Errors estimating insurer policy liabilities and reserves
  • Issues in proprietary quantitative modelling tools leading to bad business decisions

Our optional professional indemnity insurance helps protect your interests if flawed actuarial work leads directly to balance sheet losses and financial damage for your clients.

Yes – our actuary insurance can cover freelancers, contractors and temporary staff you engage to work under your practice name. For example, if you bring in a pricing quantification specialist to model an insurance product, and their flawed calculations lead to significant premium shortfalls once launched, our insurance helps cover any professional indemnity claim made against your firm.

Lawsuits typically arise when actuaries make incorrect critical calculations for businesses like pension funds and insurance companies, often involving substantial sums of money. The client might sue the actuary if these calculations lead to financial losses.

For example, an actuary might update life expectancy data for a pension fund, leading them to underestimate future pay-outs. If the fund can’t meet its obligations, they might sue the actuary. Similarly, an actuary might update an insurance company’s risk model, causing them to underestimate their liability and face regulatory action.
