Abstract

Actuaries are using a highly interdependent combination of "actuarial science" and "actuarial art" (intuition, flexibility, and educated guesses) to design, price, and manage sophisticated financial products/tools, while advisors are using their creativity, training, and experience to provide the sage advice and guidance for the unique needs of each and every one of their clients.
