At that time, the actuarial profession was little known in Singapore and there were only a handful of qualified actuaries. The adoption of the new Constitution in July 1996 and the Code of Professional Conduct in November 1997 was the fruition of efforts made in the past two decades to promote the study of actuarial science and professional standards. There was a significant refresh of the Constitution which took effect from 1 April 2022.
