Découvre l'Actuariat ft. Bilal Khoder - Épisode 8

Dans cet épisode, on plonge au cœur d’une carrière en actuariat pour comprendre concrètement ce que fait un actuaire au quotidien. C’est quoi l’actuariat ? À quoi servent les probabilités et les mathématiques financières dans le monde réel ? Comment ces modèles influencent-ils les assurances, les régimes de retraite ou même la rémunération des dirigeants ? À travers le parcours de Bilal Khoder, ancien actuaire, on explore les différentes voies possibles après des études en actuariat : assurance, consultation, fonds de pension, gestion d’actifs, finance corporative… et même des rôles stratégiques en entreprise.
