Actuary:
An actuary’s job is based on the premise that, given enough data, the right calculations will yield actionable insights that businesses can take to mitigate risk.

Data Scientist:
Like actuaries, data scientists spend their time analyzing data and making statistical predictions. However, unlike actuaries, who work primarily in insurance and deal chiefly with numbers, data scientists use a wide range of data to make predictions about a broader range of topics.
