actuarial studies is related to the share market if you were to work for investment banks and those types of firms you can definitely find a job as a actuary where you will work with the sharemarket. Actuarial studies is not restricted to the sharemarket however and has a myriad of applications not only in a commercial environment but also with the formation of policies and insurance.

make sure you love your maths though!
