Panji Widiarda Rabowo, An Corporate Actuary Working Integrity and Professionalism His love for mathematics brought Panji Widiarda Rabowo, UPH's Mathematics Alumni cohort 2009, to be one of the few Corporate Actuary at PT Tugu Reasuransi Indonesia. As the only Actuary with FSAI degree (qualitfication tests for actuarists), Panji – how he is known among his colleague, admits that the responsibilities he carries ain't an easy load. His job includes maintaining and increasing data quality, calculating technical reserves, as well as compiling and signing yearly Actuary Reports. "An actuarist's job is pivotal in a company. In regarding to data quality, I have to ensure that it is good and keeps getting better in order for the governing body to take beneficial desicions for the company. And it comes twice as important when it comes to calculating technical reserves because the stockpile I calculated will impact the company's current profit and it's capability to pay claim obligations in the future,” Panji explained. In carrying out his job as an actuarist, Panji admits that a lot of hurdles were on his way. Firstly, he had to maintain professionality and actuary professional ethics. Actuarist's work results that sometimes didn't quite meet the company's expectation, be it calculation or suggestions, required Panji to be able to keep his work consistent and convinced the management that the results were right and is for the company's well-being. Second, having to be able to align theory and practice in the reinsurance industry. A lot of times, available theory and method for insurance business aren't directly applicable for reinsurance - thus, it is not uncommon for Panji to adjust align theory and it's actual business. Panji feels extremely lucky to have gained the opportunity to take his undergraduate education at UPH. Especially when it comes to classes like Accounting Mathematics, Actuary Mathematics, and Risk Theory that has been adjusted accordingly for PAI tests, a 10-set certification test Actuarists had to take, Panji was able to learn and finish these PAI tests faster. The knowledge he's gained at UPH, combined with the profesionality he applies at work, Panji believes that it will help boost his career amongst actuarists. “During my studies at UPH, I was given the opportunity to join a number of competition held by other campuses, both in provincial level and national level. These experiences gave valuable lessons for my friends and I. Furthermore, I also feel the solidarity and togetherness across cohorts, both in my major and one faculty,” Panji closes with a smile.
