      <subfield code="a">Last month's feature article in The Actuary by Nico Aspinall outlined the importance of environmental, social and governance, which essentially refers to taking a holistic approach to actuarial science  seeing the big picture'. Indeed, actuarial science  like most 21st century fi elds or professions  is inherently interdisciplinary. A successful actuary will not only understand mathematics, business, behavioural science, politics, monetary economics, demography and much more, but will also know how to synthesise this seemingly disparate knowledge to construct accurate and insightful evaluations. The actuary ultimately fi nds unity in the complex diversity they are confronted with. At least, that's how it's supposed to be.</subfield>
