Nicholas Actuarial Solutions is the first and only actuarial firm awarded MSC Malaysia status by the Malaysian Government, and has received the Quality Assurance Scheme (QAS) accreditation from the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries (IFoA) in the UK. The firm received angel funding in 2020 and employs approximately 40 to 50 people across its regional offices. It has been recognized as a Top Actuarial Firm in Asia by Asia Captive Review (2019) and as an SME100 Awards winner in Malaysia (2023).
