The Actuary’s Free Study Guide for Exam 6

[G. Stolyarov II]

Greetings.

This past month, I have been preparing for the ARe 144 exam, whose contents and required reading overlap with the reinsurance components of the CAS Exam 6 syllabus. Just yesterday I took and passed ARe 144, which means that I can focus the next two months solely on Exam 6 preparation. I am now resuming regular publication of this study guide and will even publish at an accelerated pace when possible.
