Laura Hobern

I enjoy working with my clients and advising on a range of actuarial matters. Having worked directly for (re)insurers previously, my clients value my broad experience covering reserving, pricing, mergers and acquisitions due diligence, Part VII transfers, IFRS17, portfolio analysis and management reporting.

I have led projects across personal lines, commercial lines and the Lloyd’s market and hold a Lloyd’s Syndicate Actuary practicing certificate.

I have a particular interest in increasing the value that actuaries bring to the business, including through portfolio analytics and improvements to the reserving process.

I am currently on the IFoA GI Research and Thought Leadership Committee, the London Market Actuaries’ Group (“LMAG”) Committee and the Towards the Optimal Reserving Process (“TORP”) Working Party. I am also passionate about diversity and inclusion and volunteer with a number of charities focusing on social mobility.
