Actuarial advisory firm Actuarial Risk Management (ARM) has appointed Raghu Ramachandran as Director of its Life & Annuity insurance consulting practice.
Ramachandran’s career includes roles as Head of Insurance Asset Channel at S&P Dow Jones Indices, Chief Investment Officer of a US multi-line insurance company, and an insurance portfolio manager and head of the portfolio strategy group at Brown Brothers Harriman (BBH).
“Raghu and I crossed paths 30 years ago when I came to the US, and I have been continually impressed by his capabilities and insights into risk management for insurance company portfolios,” said Corwin Zass, Principal and Founder at ARM.
“With increasing regulatory scrutiny on investments held by insurance companies, the addition of Raghu to our team is very timely. His impressive background will benefit our clients immensely, while promoting ARM’s captive BPO platform in Argentina, the Data Modeling Institute (DMI), which supports our extensive pool of senior consulting actuaries,” he added.
Ramachandran started his consulting career with Tillinghast, now part of Willis Towers Watson, where he developed stochastic modelling tools. In his new position at ARM, Ramachandran will be the company’s Client Relationship Manager, focusing on insurers and reinsurers within the life insurance, annuity and pension risk transfer (PRT) markets.
