Default Non-traditional actuarial roll

Hello,

I work for a small company that provides fruad solutions to financial instions (big companies). My manager is open to the idea of supporting me through the actuarial exams. I just wanted to get some thoughts on whether the credentials would be applicable/beneficial. I passed the first couple of exams while working at a previous job. I find the actuarial educational path interesting and would like to get some thoughts. It definitely would be insurance. We do a lot of data mining and predictive modeling.

Thanks for your help.

Roll can also be a list of people in some specific category. Although that isn't how it is used here, that was what I originally thought the title meant - a list of people (OK, outpost IDs) that are working in non-traditional roles.
