IFoA Covid-19 Action Taskforce (ICAT) workstreams

Covid-19 was a once-in-a-century event that will shape the profession for years to come. Some actuaries, particularly those involved in pandemic risk, were at the forefront of understanding Covid-19. Many more were involved in supporting clients and employers deal with the varied implications.

The IFoA had a significant role to play in the crisis and in order to ensure that it could do this speedily and effectively, a Covid-19 Action Taskforce (ICAT) was established and was responsible for leading and coordinating the IFoA’s response to the coronavirus crisis.

This volunteer activity across the organisation was led by Louise Pryor (incoming President-Elect) along with Colin Dutkiewicz (Chair, Life Board) and Jo Davis (Head of Communities).
There was also a small team of volunteers working with this ICAT Management Team; Julie Pallister, (lead), Kirstin Cam, Holly Steward and Randy Wright who undertook miscellaneous tasks to aid with the coordination, oversight and running of the ICAT workstreams. This included reviewing and presenting the results of the survey, supporting with workstream volunteer allocations, coordinating responses to reviews of papers and assisting with communications.

We received interest from 557 volunteers and suggestions for countless topics which have been amalgamated into 93 workstreams.

This area on the IFoA research Hub contains the research outputs produced under ICAT.
