An attestation is a credentialed actuary's signed statement that they have read the methodology document at the published version, applied their professional judgment, and find the document defensible. Attestations are version-pinned; a methodology version bump requires re-attestation. Compensation arrangements, where any exist, are disclosed publicly alongside each entry.
This entry is the demonstration signing actuary used on the published Sample Workforce Exposure Forecast (/sample-workforce-exposure-forecast.pdf). The signer name is illustrative; the methodology v1.0 to which the Sample is pinned is the same v1.0 document any live signing actuary would attest to. Live attestations appear immediately above this entry as they are submitted and verified.
Credentialed actuaries (ASA, FSA, MAAA, FCAS, ACAS) may submit an attestation by reading the published v1.0 document and contacting Metra at care@usemetra.com with subject line “Methodology Attestation — v1.0”. The submission carries name, credential, firm, credential number, optional firm letterhead document, and a statement of attestation. Compensation arrangements (where any exist) are disclosed publicly on this roster alongside the entry.
Critiques and counter-derivations on v1.0 are equally welcomed and are logged into the v1.1 drafting input. Subject line “Methodology Review — v1.0”.
