The Institute and Faculty of Actuaries’ Continuous Mortality Investigation (CMI) published CMI_2023, its annual update to the CMI Mortality Projections Model in mid-April. Notably, there was a disconnect between insurer and reinsurer actuaries and pension consultants and other actuaries with regards to the weighting of the 2022 and 2023 data in this latest projection. Greg Winterton covered this one, with comments from Cobus Daneel, Chair, CMI Mortality Projections Committee and Roger Lawrence, Managing Director at WL Consulting, in Conflicting Views in Calculation of Latest Continuous Mortality Investigation Model.
