SEATTLE, Nov. 2, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Milliman, Inc., a premier global consulting and actuarial firm, announced that it will begin operations in Sri Lanka after an agreement to acquire Colombo-based Spark Actuarial Private Limited came into effect today. The new Milliman office will support local and international clients with the firm’s full range of actuarial services. Milliman now serves the region through offices in 13 key Asia-Pacific cities.
“Asia’s economic growth has led to a substantial demand for actuarial and consulting services in the region,” says Milliman CEO and President Steve White. “The establishment of a team in Sri Lanka is another step in our journey to increase the depth and breadth of our service offering in Asia.”
Richard Holloway, Milliman Managing Director, South East Asia & India, Life added, “We’ve been supporting the Sri Lankan market from our other office locations for several years.
