Log In To View Content
Overview

This session is based on recent SOA research examining how the COVID-19 outbreak will impact life insurance industry claims. While data on U.S. COVID-19 deaths and hospitalization rates is reported throughout the media, it is often in an aggregated form and not at a level that is useful for actuaries.

Listen to the authors, Dale Hall, SOA Managing Director of Research, and Cindy MacDonald, SOA Sr. Experience Studies Actuary, provide their perspectives on how publicly available data may be used to help actuaries determine COVID-19’s impact on their company’s life claims.
