Actuarial and risk consulting · South Africa

Your risk function, run by an actuary, without the full-time hire.

Most businesses that need risk management cannot justify a chief risk officer. Amatle Consulting gives you one on a retainer: a qualified actuary and risk professional who runs your risk framework, reports to your board and does the actuarial work when you need it.

Services

Start where you are. Grow from there.

A small business can start with a single framework project. A growing one can hand us the whole risk function. Each service stands on its own and each one leads naturally to the next.

Retainer

Your risk function, without the full-time hire

We act as your outsourced chief risk officer. We keep the risk register current, run the risk conversations with management and give your board a quarterly risk report it can table, aligned to King IV.

  • Risk register and risk appetite, kept live
  • Quarterly board and committee risk report
  • Attendance at audit and risk committee meetings
  • Fixed monthly or quarterly fee

Project

Risk framework, built and handed over

For businesses that want the framework in place and will run it themselves. We build it with your team, train the people who will own it and hand it over complete.

  • Enterprise risk management framework and policy
  • Risk register, appetite statement and reporting templates
  • Training for the owners of each risk
  • Option to retain us to run it afterwards

Actuarial

Actuarial services

Reserving, valuations and reporting work for insurers, funeral and burial schemes, medical schemes, retirement funds and lenders, done by a Fellow of the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries.

  • Reserving and valuations
  • IFRS 17 and IFRS 9 support and remediation
  • Experience investigations and assumption reviews
  • Product and pricing reviews

Advisory

Governance and board advisory

Practical help for boards and committees: what good risk oversight looks like, where your governance has gaps and how to close them.

  • Governance and risk maturity reviews
  • Board and committee risk training
  • Regulatory readiness reviews
  • Skills transfer to your finance and risk teams

Who we work with

Built for the businesses big consultancies are not built for.

You do not need to be a large insurer to need serious risk and actuarial work. We size the engagement to the business in front of us.

Small and mid-size businesses

Companies with a board, lenders or investors asking about risk, and no chief risk officer.

Insurers and micro-insurers

Including funeral and burial schemes that need actuarial work sized to their book.

Medical schemes and retirement funds

Valuations, experience investigations and governance support.

Lenders and credit providers

IFRS 9 expected credit loss work and credit risk governance.

Public entities

Enterprise risk management and board reporting for agencies and municipalities.

Larger firms with supplier targets

Specialist work that also counts toward your enterprise and supplier development spend.

How we work

Four steps, no surprises.

  1. 1

    A conversation

    We hear what you need, what your board or regulator is asking for and what you already have in place.

  2. 2

    A clear scope and a fixed fee

    You get a written proposal with the work, the deliverables, the timeline and the price before anything starts.

  3. 3

    The work, done properly

    Every engagement is led and signed off by a qualified actuary. No juniors learning on your account.

  4. 4

    Handover and skills transfer

    We leave your people able to run what we built, backed by the training of Amatle Institute.

About

An actuary on every engagement.

Amatle Consulting is led by Thandeka Mokoena, a Fellow of the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries and a Chartered Enterprise Risk Actuary, with fifteen years in insurance and prudentially regulated financial services.

We are part of the Amatle family. Our sister company, Amatle Institute, trains accountants, actuaries and finance teams on IFRS and SAM. That is why skills transfer is part of how we work, not an add-on: when we leave, your people know how to run what we built.
