The Government Actuary’s Department (GAD) is a department of the Government of the United Kingdom responsible for providing actuarial advice to public sector clients.

Its mission is to support effective decision-making and robust reporting within government as the first choice provider of actuarial and specialist analysis, advice and assurance.

The services GAD provides are:

  • Actuarial valuations and advice for public sector pension schemes including the pensions aspects of staff transfers;
  • Advice to the Government on occupational pension schemes, social security and on private pensions policy;
  • Advice on insurance, contingent liabilities and on the pricing and management of risk;
  • Other actuarial and modelling advice and assurance on areas including statistical analysis, healthcare financing and investment-related issues.

History

In 1912 the Government appointed a chief actuary to the National Health Insurance Joint Committee, following the Old Age Pensions Act 1908 and the National Insurance Act 1911. As the role of the Chief Actuary expanded the post of Government Actuary was created in 1917. Two years later the Government Actuary’s Department was formed.

The role of GAD within government expanded significantly in the 1940s and 1950s, coinciding with an expansion of the state’s role in pensions, social security and health care. By the 1980s GAD had grown into a significant actuarial consultancy within government and in 1989 the financing of GAD through an annual Parliamentary vote of funds was replaced by a system of directly charging users of GAD’s services. The calculation of GAD's fees is based solely on the recovery of its costs.

Today, GAD has offices in London and Edinburgh and employs around 180 staff of whom over 140 are qualified actuaries, trainees or analysts.
