Forsides Consulting Group

What Forsides Consulting Group does

Forsides Consulting Group is a privately-held French holding company (SAS) headquartered in Paris, founded in 2012, that operates a multi-subsidiary professional services platform targeting the insurance and banking sectors in France and Luxembourg. The group comprises seven wholly-owned subsidiaries: Forsides France and Forsides Luxembourg deliver actuarial consulting; Dataltist provides data science, machine learning, and data visualization services; APPC supplies regulatory tools for insurance compliance (notably Solvency II); Altia offers strategy and organization consulting for insurers and social protection organizations; AccTeam operates a freelance consultant matching platform with several hundred consultants; and Airwork provides salary portage services allowing independent consultants to work under employee status. The firm also partners with Eliza Formation (IFPASS Group) to deliver professional training in insurance, banking, and finance.

The group's core technology stack centers on the Forwiksides actuarial knowledge encyclopedia — an internal platform for codifying and transferring actuarial expertise — combined with Dataltist's data science capabilities covering data visualization, machine learning, data structuring, and model interpretability. Approximately 100 internal employees work alongside several hundred freelance consultants accessed through AccTeam; the leadership team comprises certified actuaries and senior consultants with credentials from ISUP, ISFA, and the Institut de Science Financière et d'Assurances.

Forsides generates revenue primarily through professional services — project-based consulting engagements, multi-year advisory contracts, salary portage administrative fees (Airwork), and training delivery (via Eliza Formation partnership). Pricing is quote-based and varies by project scope and consultant seniority; no rate card is publicly disclosed. The group's go-to-market is enterprise field sales, with consultants deployed directly onto client missions in the insurance and banking sectors. Marketing relies on the monthly Actu'Air newsletter, annual company seminars, and participation in industry events such as the Foulées de l'Assurance and Tournois des Actuaires. Share capital stands at €830,000, the company is founder-led by President Arnaud Cohen, and no external private equity or venture capital funding has been disclosed.
