Articles - An introduction to alternative economic thinking


The opening event in the IFoA Alternative Economic Thinking Thought Leadership Series, part of the 2022/2023 Presidential Speaker Series, introduces ‘alternative economic thinking’ as a concept, including what each of the expert panellists perceive the limitations to be with orthodox, existing economic models. It unpacked the rationale behind the need for new economic thinking and some of the various alternative models being proposed. It also explored how new economic thought relates to actuarial work and how it might help address some of the big challenges where actuaries apply their skills.
