“Policy makers are increasingly looking to actuaries to share our perspective on how to improve the retirement system, manage risk, and help working Americans secure a more financially sound retirement,” said Manning. “As the U.S. workforce and retirement landscape change, so must US policy in order to deliver retirement security. I’m excited to serve in this role to provide the actuarial perspective as improvements to the retirement system take form.”
Manning also serves as a lecturer at Columbia University’s Master’s Program in Actuarial Science, where she developed and continues to teach their pension course.
