Association of Latin/Hispanic Actuaries?

Hugh Jass already explained it. Also an example to go by:

http://blackactuaries.org/ (International Association of Black Actuaries)

To Will Durant and others, the lack of a "critical mass" is precisely why such an organization would be useful.

I second karena2484. I would also like to join. I haven't read the entire thread but what is the current status of this Latino_Actuaries group or any other Latino Actuarial association?

I've created a Facebook group to network and discuss before an actual national organization is set up. PM if you'd like the link to join.

Well, it took 10 years, but we finally did it.
The Organization of Latino Actuaries is now a not-for-profit.

Our online presence is on LinkedIn as a group.

Feel free to connect with me on LinkedIn, and I'll send you an invite to the group.

If you're in the LA area, we are hosting a networking event on November 7th at The Fifth in Anaheim from 5-7pm.
