The Groupe Consultatif

The Groupe was established in 1978 to bring together the actuarial associations in the European Union to represent the actuarial profession in discussion with the European Union institutions on existing and proposed EU legislation which has an impact on the profession.

The Groupe also now provides a forum for discussion amongst all actuarial associations throughout Europe. The Groupe currently has thirty-seven member associations in thirty-five European countries, representing about 20,000 actuaries. Advice and comments provided by the Groupe on behalf of the European actuarial profession are totally independent of industry interests.
