Abstract: Risk terminology varies from organisation to organisation, and actuaries working in different organisations may use different terms to refer to the same risk, or use the same nomenclature for completely different risks. This paper sets out a classification system developed by the Risk Classification Working Party for the Profession that can be used as a common reference point for discussing risk. Actuaries will not be required to use this system, but it is hoped that common terminology will reduce the possibility of confusion in discussing risks.
