Each issue of Contingencies is distributed to the entire membership of the American Academy of Actuaries as well as financial professionals interested in the actuarial perspective on a range of financial and social concerns.

Our total print circulation reaches more than 34,000 readers in the United States and Canada—more than any other actuarial magazine!

Non-actuarial readers include professionals in law, risk management, and benefit administration, as well as government officials, policymakers, educators, and regulators.

Actuaries are a prime audience for advertisers. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics at the Department of Labor, the median annual salary for actuaries in 2014-5 is $93,680 (about three times the combined average for all U.S. occupations), and the top 10 percent of actuaries earn more than $175,000 annually. Many actuaries go on to become senior executives in the insurance and financial services industry.
