What changed
This document serves as a notice for a Federal Advisory Committee meeting hosted by the Joint Board for the Enrollment of Actuaries (JBEA). The meeting, scheduled for July 6-7, 2023, will cover discussions on potential topics for future actuarial examinations, review of the May 2023 Pension (EA-2L) and Basic (EA-1) Examinations, and recommendations for minimum pass scores. Portions of the meeting related to exam content and review will be closed to the public due to the sensitive nature of upcoming examination questions.
While this is primarily an informational notice about a meeting, regulated entities, particularly employers who rely on actuarial certifications, should be aware of potential changes to examination content and pass scores that could affect the qualification of actuaries. The notice also provides instructions for interested parties wishing to attend the public session or submit written statements, with a deadline of June 30, 2023, for notifications. No direct compliance actions are mandated by this notice, but awareness of the JBEA's examination review process is relevant for professional development and qualification standards.
What to do next
- Review meeting agenda and topics for potential impact on actuarial qualification standards.
- Submit written statements or requests to attend the public session by June 30, 2023, if applicable.
