Yaar, Inside Careers is just a career services firm and doesn't hire actuaries explicitly and hence they are not 'biggest' actuarial recruiters. The fact that they didn't list lse as one of the programme provider could be any reason - one of them possibly may be that LSE didn't fell into their criteria, i.e. long and established programmes.
But then again, not many freshers into the undergraduate programmes knows what they are actuallly getting into. The actual actuarial stuff doesn't start till second or third year and therefore it may not be good idea to close most of your options and that is one of the reason why most people who are in this profession tends to do maths or other 'open' subjects at university.
