work experience experience

Dapper425

I am thinking of sending my work experience for approval to CFAI but have the following questions:

1. I have 6+ years of trading experience but it is 10+ yrs old. Does it count? also, the firm that I worked with as a trader has long been gone (bought out by someone and then the acquirer got bought out) and there is no trail. How will CFAI verify this (assuming I can use this experience to begin with).
2. I have 5+ yrs of experience with a non-life insurance company in the risk management area. I was involved in little bit of everything; actuarial modeling, statutory filings, fund investments, M&A etc. will CFAI consider this experience acceptable?

I'd appreciate your feedback.
