2014 Annual Meeting Program Book - International Association of

Move From Involvement to Commitment
21st Annual Meeting | August 1 & 2, 2014 | New Orleans, LA
Welcome to New Orleans!
It is my pleasure to welcome you to the 21st Annual Meeting of
the International Association of Black Actuaries. Being given the
opportunity to Chair the Annual Meeting Planning Committee is
such an incredible honor and I intend to do the role justice. It is my
hope that as we progress through the meeting, that you will see
the hard work of the entire committee who I thank wholeheartedly.
It would be very remiss of me to not mention the overwhelming
response to our call for sponsorship from our Friends of IABA,
new corporate sponsors and our tried and true Corporate
Advisory Council. We thank you for your generosity and support.
New Orleans is such a beautiful and historic city where many
cultures come together and create a melting pot. I find many
parallels between our host city and our organization as we bring
together professionals and students from all over the world with
one common purpose. Our purpose is embodied in IABA’s mission
but it is more than words simply uttered, it requires commitment
not just involvement. This is the essence of this year’s theme Mission (Im)Possible: Move From Involvement to Commitment. As a
volunteer based organization, our members and supporters are our
“workforce.” Our leaders challenge, educate and motivate us to be
the best version of ourselves. Return the favor and help make IABA
into the best that it can be.
With that said, accept this new challenge, use your talents without
abandon to help us develop our future generation, guide and
motivate the current one and hold dear the guiding principles of
our founders.
Enjoy the meeting and explore New Orleans!

Historically, Actuaries have had limited participation in the strategic activities within insurance companies. As companies
look to transform their Finance and Actuarial processes, an opportunity exists for Actuaries to claim a seat at the table.
The foundation to earning this seat can be found in the analysis and communication provided by the actuaries. Focusing on
their audience, actuaries can use their insight into trends and financial results to own the message with improved analytics
combined with timely and effective communication.

A discussion on the future of the LTC insurance industry. First, a synopsis of the first 40 years including the maturing

has had on consumers both positive and negative. Then, a description of the future LTC insurance industry ideas
various organizations, including the Society of Actuaries (SOA), have published. Finally, a discussion that will put the
various disparate ideas into practical themes that begin to shift the conversation from describing the “LTC Issue” to
debating the practical path to the “LTC Solution.”

Disaster Risk Management with a Caribbean Case Study
Caribbean countries are exposed to a high level of risk to meteorological and geophysical hazards, which have significant
negative impacts on communities, infrastructure and economic stability. In fact, in the last 20 years, damages from natural
disasters have exceeded US$40 billion in the region. The World Bank is working with countries to enhance their resilience to
natural disasters and the impacts of climate change. This presentation will discuss World Bank’s disaster risk management
engagement and focus on the following case study: On December 24, 2013, a tropical weather trough passed over Saint Vincent
and the Grenadines and Saint Lucia producing extraordinarily intense rainfall that resulted in severe damages, 15 confirmed
deaths and over 11 percent of the population directly impacted. This case study will present the rapid damage and loss
assessments, produced by the Governments and the World Bank, that aims to inform the recovery and reconstruction efforts.

is growing worse as more responsibility is shifting to employees. This presentation will focus on how disability can derail

Insurance is a risk-taking business. Risk managers must ensure that the risks taken are intentional and understood, as
well as aligned to the organization’s objectives. This can be achieved only through a well-designed risk management
framework, with effective governance and high-quality risk information. To provide management with the information it
needs, risks should be quantified through various lenses, at aggregate and more granular levels. This session focuses on
risk quantification at an enterprise level.

Dr. Carl B. Mack was born in
Jackson, Mississippi, is a graduate
and Distinguished Engineering
Fellow of Mississippi State
University (Bachelor of Science,
Mechanical Engineering) and
was also awarded an honorary
Doctor of Science degree by
Clarkson University in 2010. He
currently serves on the Board of
Trustees for Clarkson University,
the Society of Automotive
Engineers and the advisor board
for the College of Engineering
at Mississippi State University.
each of the cities SEEK was held. He received recognition in Ebony
magazine as one of the Top 150 Black Leaders in America. In July
2009, Adm. Gary Roughead, Chief of Naval Operations, presented
Mack with the National Naval Officers Association’s top honor for
work in the field of diversity: the Capt. Charles L. Tompkins Award.
On March 1, 2005, Mack
became the fourth executive director of the National Society
of Black Engineers (NSBE), one of the nation’s largest studentgoverned organizations.
To help fill the pipeline to engineering careers with greater
numbers of minorities, in the Summer of 2007, Mack founded
NSBE’s free three week Summer Engineering Experience for
Kids (SEEK) Academy. SEEK represented the largest engineering
camps in the history of the nation for African American children
and other minorities. As an example, both the 2013 Washington,
D.C. and San Diego programs were attended by nearly 700
children each. Another example was the 2013 Jackson, MS. AllGirls SEEK program, never in the history of America has there
been an engineering camp attended by 360 3rd-5th grade African
American girls! From its humble beginning in 2007, by 2013
SEEK had expanded to 10 cities: Washington, D.C., San Diego,
CA, Oakland, CA, Denver, CO., Houston, Texas, New Orleans, LA,
Jackson, MS. Philadelphia, PA., Brooklyn, NY. and Detroit, Mich.
His presence at NSBE was immediately felt. In each of his first
five years, the organization set records for membership, reaching
35,493 members in 2010, up from its previous high of 12,842
before his arrival. He has also been instrumental in increasing
NSBE’s financial resources to record highs: helping expand the
organization’s cash reserves from $3.5 million to $11.0 million;
securing a largest-ever grant of $1 million from a NSBE sponsor;
helping build NSBE’s top-level sponsorship to record levels;
bringing in hundreds of thousands of dollars to strengthen
NSBE’s IT infrastructure; pushing attendance at NSBE’s Annual
Convention to nearly 10,000 attendees and working with NSBE’s
National Executive Board to pay off the mortgage on NSBE’s
new World Headquarters building, among other highlights.
Before joining NSBE, Mack worked as an engineer with METRO
– King County in Seattle, Wash. Designing and starting up waste
water treatment plants. He also coordinated the county’s awardwinning Minority Engineering Internship Program. From November
2003 – February 2005 he served as president of the Seattle King
County Branch of the National Association for the Advancement
of Colored People (NAACP). During his tenure, the branch won
the 2004 Class 1-A Thalheimer Award as the top branch in the
country. Because of his significant contributions in the arena of
civil rights, Mack was listed as one of the 25 Most Influential people
in the greater Seattle area. Upon his announcement to leave
the greater Seattle area, both the City of Seattle and the King
County government named February 12, 2005, Carl B. Mack Day.
His extraordinary leadership led to an increase in visibility for the
organization, with appearances on CNN’s Lou Dobbs Tonight and
ABC’s Good Morning America, features in the Washington, Post,
San Francisco Chronicle, and news coverage by major networks in
Mack resides in Fort Washington, Md., with his sons, Joshua and
Jonathan, and his wife, Jamiyo (Jamie-Yo), a chemical engineer
whom he met at NSBE’s 2000 Annual National Convention.
His daughter, LaShaundra Johnson resides in Jackson, MS.
