AvoidingPriorArt

Do actuaries avoid prior art?

 

We don't feel we avoid using it (that implies choosing not to use it) however there are some

 

Barriers to using prior art

 

Can't find it - Might use something if we knew where to look

 

Time - in many roles there isn't sufficient time to invest in trying to improve methods

 

Lack of pressure to innovate - Often standard techniques are good enough to get the job done.

 

Comfort factor - not sure how big the benefit is going to be, or how reliable the technique is.

 

Barriers to sharing prior art

 

IP concerns - are we giving away our edge, is it company sensitive
