Reinsurer SCOR has awarded its annual actuarial prizes in six European countries in 2025, recognizing research primarily on climate change, health insurance, and risk modeling, according to a company press release.

In 2025, the awards were presented in Germany, Spain, France, Italy, Sweden, and Switzerland. In France, the award is funded by the SCOR Corporate Foundation for Science, chaired by Pierre-André Chiappori. The juries consist of researchers and recognized professionals in the insurance, reinsurance, and finance sectors.
