Wakefield, MA, US
Colin Finch is a consulting actuary with the Boston office of Milliman. He joined the firm in 2013.
Experience
Colin serves a wide variety of clients in the commercial lines market. He works closely with executive management of alternative risk arrangements, including risk retention groups, public entity risk pools, captives, reciprocal exchanges, and workers compensation self-insurance groups. His primary focus areas are:
- Loss reserving – Estimating unpaid liabilities for financial reporting purposes and in support of Statements of Actuarial Opinion. Beyond traditional reserving approaches, Colin regularly applies advanced simulation techniques to model unpaid liabilities for complex reinsurance agreements and also assists clients in their understanding of the variability inherent in their loss reserves.
- Pricing – Providing loss forecasts and more traditional ratemaking work to support company rate decisions, reinsurance procurement, and state regulatory filings.
- Economic capital modeling – Developing stochastic, multi-year models that holistically measure key quantitative risks for the purpose of assessing capital adequacy. Colin also has experience translating the results of these models into actionable information needed for newly forming, or already existing, enterprise risk management processes.
Prior to joining Milliman, Colin served four years in the United States Marine Corps and was honorably discharged in 2013.
