About SIAS
The Staple Inn Actuarial Society was originally founded in 1910 as the Institute of Actuaries Students' Society. Its original objectives were to assist students in preparing for actuarial exams and to provide a forum to practice public speaking. Over time SIAS has evolved to become a body with over 5,000 members around the world, representing and serving the interests of younger members of the actuarial profession, whilst also acting as the London region actuarial society.
