2025 Caribbean Actuarial Association Conference
December 10–12, 2025
Ocean Coral Spring Hotel | Coral Spring, Trelawny, Jamaica
We are pleased to invite you to the 35th Caribbean Actuarial Association Conference which will be held in Trelawny, Jamaica from December 10-12, 2025.
It has been 7 years since the Caribbean Actuarial Association (CAA) conference has been held in Jamaica, and much has changed in Jamaica since then. For example, in 2018, the ratio of Jamaica’s Debt to Gross Domestic Product (Debt-to-GDP ratio) was hovering near 100%. In the years that followed, Jamaica embarked on one of the most remarkable economic debt reduction programmes in the western hemisphere, ultimately leading to a reduction in its debt-to-GDP ratio to 62.4% at the end of the 2024/2025 fiscal year.
Not many people imagined that Jamaica could have achieved this stunning debt reduction in such a short time. How did the nation do this? Broadly by bipartisan support of a set of economic principles and framework grounded in fiscal discipline, public-private collaboration and national sacrifice. Jamaica’s economic turnaround is a positive example of how different our Caribbean realities can become when we coalesce around our key problems. And it is why we believe our 2025 conference theme – “Future-Proofing the Present” – is so fitting.
As leaders and practitioners, we are often confronted with dealing with today’s issues while, more importantly, planning for the issues of tomorrow. This year’s conference theme is centred on this very duality. It is a call to action to create a future that embodies our resilience as a Caribbean people.
Our vision for this conference in Jamaica is for it to be a meeting of the minds that will answer this call to action. To support this goal, we have developed a programme that is punctuated with topics which are not just timely but are also of critical importance to our region – building climate resilience; providing affordable insurance programs for our populations that have high incidences of non-communicable diseases; the adoption of advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence; and managing demographic shifts due to vaccination, migration, infertility and low birth rates. However, this is merely a necessary condition for achieving our vision.
What is more important is having the right people involved and engaged at the conference. In recognition of Jamaica’s national motto – “Out of Many One People” – we are therefore striving to attract a diverse conference delegation of not just actuaries, but also actuarial adjacent professionals, industry leaders, legislators, regulators and other interested individuals at the conference. With this diversity in our conference delegation and thought-provoking topics, we intend to create an environment that will inspire each attendee to take future-proofing actions within their communities.
Let us shape the future we want today, in the present. Join us as we collaborate on “Future-Proofing the Present”.
