Yeside Kazeem, FIA, FNAS, Co-Founder of the African Actuarial Development Academy (AADA) & Past President of the Nigerian Actuarial Society (NAS)
“The actuarial profession in Africa is evolving, driven by a growing need for risk management expertise. Volunteering is crucial in developing local talent, strengthening professional standards, and expanding industry capacity. Actuaries contribute through mentoring, training, and policy advocacy to ensure sustainable growth. Collaboration with regulators, universities, and industry bodies is key to building a resilient actuarial ecosystem. AADA, founded by actuaries in Africa, is dedicated to developing more actuaries and strengthening the actuarial pipeline across the continent.”
