It is the great pleasure for the IAA and the Institute of Actuaries in Japan (IAJ) to host the 33rd International Congress of Actuaries (ICA2026) in Tokyo, Japan, in November 2026. The year 2026 is very special for the IAJ. We held an ICA in 1976 in Tokyo, and the year 2026 will mark the 50th Anniversary of the last ICA we hosted. Now, the ICA2026 welcomes presentations from a diverse range of delegates, including practitioners, academics, and other professionals from around the world.

Through this Call for Papers, ICA2026 offers you the opportunity to be part of the Congress program and contribute to the advancement of actuarial science across various fields.

The first step is to submit an abstract of your presentation by September 30, 2025. We welcome presentations without a paper. You can submit an abstract even if you do not plan to provide a paper for the Congress. However, please note that only submitted papers will be eligible for awards and we would encourage you to submit a paper.

The potential topics for presentations span across eight subjects: Life, Non-Life, Health, Pensions/Social Security, ERM, Investment/Finance, Actuarial Consulting, and Professionalism/Actuarial Education. Find the full list of topics here. Please note that this list is for illustrative purposes only, and we welcome other topics as well. In particular, while not explicitly listed below, presentations on Data Science/AI are also encouraged, as long as they relate to at least one of the other eight subjects.
Presentations on any of the core themes are welcome as well.

Be part of ICA2026 and submit your paper now.
