description: This text is listed on the Course of Reading for the Canadian Retirement Benefits Design and Pricing Examination of the Society of Actuaries and the EA-2,A Examination of the Joint Board for the Enrollment of Actuaries. This comprehensive text is addressed to beginners in pension mathematics who have a firm grounding in basic actuarial mathematics, particularly life contingencies. It also presumes a reasonable background in general college-level mathematics, including calculus and probability, and familiarity with international actuarial notation. It contains extensive exercises of several types. Some ask the reader to complete mathematical developments in the text, others are numerical examples, others are used to develop related material, and several serve to expand the reader’s intellectual horizons to deeper mathematical or philosophical questions. This text had been the principal reference for the pension mathematics topic on the Society of Actuaries examination program for more than twenty years.
