Barnett Waddingham, the UK’s largest independent firm of actuaries and consultants is celebrating a 100% pass rate following the latest round of core applications (CA1) actuarial exams.

The firm’s CA1 pass rate of 100% is particularly impressive when compared with the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries’ average pass rate of 47%.


Barnett Waddingham has also announced that six of their staff have recently become newly qualified actuaries, bringing the firm’s nationwide total of qualified actuaries to 100.

Newly qualified actuaries are;
Chris Ramsey from the London office, Jon Maude from the Amersham office, Mel Stephenson and Geoff Howard from the Cheltenham office, Scott McGarva from the Glasgow office and Sarah Franklin from the Bromsgrove office.

Adrian Waddingham, senior partner says: “The outstanding pass rate of 100% in the latest CA1 exam and the impressive performance of our people in the other subjects is a demonstration of Barnett Waddingham’s commitment to developing our people to the best of their abilities.  On behalf of everyone at the firm I would also like to congratulate each of our newly qualified actuaries. We are proud of the steady increase in the number of high calibre individuals working at Barnett Waddingham and the fact we now have more than 100 actuaries firmly places us as the UK’s largest independent firm of actuaries and consultants”.
