It’s that time again! Time for another episode of the Society of Actuaries Research Insights Podcast!  We have a great Research Insights Podcast Classic which aligns to April observances:  Financial Literacy month and Earth Day. We searched through our archive for a podcast that intersects these two observances and came up with “Climate Change and Other Impacts on Retirement” which was first published on October 25, 2021.  Hear guests Max Rudolph and Anna Rappaport talk about how climate risks can impact our savings planning for retirement.  Enjoy this Research Insights Podcast Classic!

Hey there Listeners!  We have a great Research Insights Podcast Classic to bring to you today.  Four years ago today at 5:00 p.m., the state of Illinois was under a statewide stay at home order due to COVID-19.  It was a scary time, and life as we knew it forever changed.  Around this time we published one in a series of special episodes focusing on COVID-19, and we thought it a good idea to pull this episode out of our archives, dust it off and share it with you all over again.  The episode is “U.S. Life Insurance COVID-19 Impact: A Mortality Claim Forecast." So, sit back, listen, and learn from this Research Insights Podcast Classic.
