What is meant by Actuaries

[Muhammad Ahmad]

I do not know much, but my concept about ACturial Scientists is that they are highly paid people and are far beeter qualified than a chartered accountants. Acturial science invovle complex methimetical calculations used by the insurance,banking copanienes etc. These pople are also working as fund manager and have the ability to develop schemes like retirement benifits,WWf, and benovelont funds.To me there are only few acturialist in pak..........
