1998 – ARIA promotes interaction of academics, industry, Society of Actuaries (act-1988-vol22-iss08-huntington) – 3p

He pointed out, however, that ARIA is the organization for insurance academics and symposia of this type will serve to foster research in insurance regulation. He said the purpose of the symposium would be to promote interaction between insurance regulators and academics and provide for thoughtful discussion of important regulatory and public policy issues in insurance. Each symposium could be organized around a general theme as opposed to a narrow topic, which would provide some degree of cohesiveness while broadening the potential interest in the symposium. The symposium would be oriented toward applying theoretical concepts and critical analysis to practical regulatory problems. Papers would be solicited and presented on topics related to the symposium theme and sessions would be organized around the different topics and papers. Participants in the sessions would represent a range of perspectives including regulatory, academic and industry. The primary focus would be discussion of the papers but participants would be encouraged to present general views on the topic as well.
President Walsh said he believes that the symposium will significantly contribute to regulators’ and academics’ understanding of important policy issues in insurance. Upon motion duly made and seconded, the subcommittee received the report on the overview of the Annual Regulatory Issues Symposium.

Academics look at problems differently than those of us in the practical world, and that difference in perspective can supplement, in a healthy way, the growth and evolution of the basic subject.”

1986 – ADDRESS OF THE PRESIDENT, RICHARD S. ROBERTSON, Society of Actuaries

“But nowhere has there been a serious, full dress attempt to re-define the modern American insurance transaction as a sui generis matter.

Perhaps the job is too big, or too dull.”
