The Risk Management, Economic Sustainability, and Actuarial Science Development in Indonesia (READI) project (2015-2021) was undertaken with the financial support of the Government of Canada provided through the Department of Global Affairs Canada (GAC), with the University of À¶Ý®ÊÓÆµ serving as the Canadian Executing Agency (CEA). The project is housed in the Department of Statistics and Actuarial Science at the University of À¶Ý®ÊÓÆµ. Additional funding was provided by Manulife Indonesia to support elements of the project to reach its goals.
The objective of the project was to establish Indonesia as a regional centre of actuarial excellence.
The project worked with a range of key stakeholders – including high schools and universities, the insurance and pensions industry, Indonesia’s professional actuarial association, and government agencies – to:
- Increase the number and quality of Indonesian actuarial science graduates available to Indonesian businesses, uniÂversities and government agencies;
- Strengthen the linkages between industry, government and eduÂcational institutions in support of actuarial science and risk management;
- Deepen the underÂstanding of actuarial science and risk management as a profession.
