Independent review

Independent actuarial reasonableness assessments

An independent actuarial view for external auditors, audit committees and boards who need an expert opinion on reserves or capital they can rely on.

When an independent view helps

External audit

When an audit team needs an actuarial expert to assess management's Technical Provisions or the judgements behind them.

Audit committee assurance

When non‑executives want an independent perspective before approving the reserve estimate or capital position.

After change or volatility

Following a change of reserving approach, a significant claims event, or movements that are hard to explain internally.

Resource gaps

When the internal actuarial function is stretched, and a second, independent pair of senior eyes reduces key‑person risk.

How we approach it

Focus

Concentrate on the areas of greatest judgement and materiality, not a full re‑performance.

Re‑project

Independently re‑project key classes where needed to test the reasonableness of the estimate.

Range

Consider a range of reasonable outcomes and where management's estimate sits within it.

Opinion

A clear written opinion with supporting workpapers, ready for audit files.

Genuinely independent

We have no audit, broking, software or asset‑management relationship to protect. Our only interest is an honest, well‑evidenced actuarial view.

Before accepting any engagement we confirm there is no conflict with the client, its auditors or its group.
