Exnukc r s FROM THE REPORT FOR TIIE YEAR
1862.

The Directors of the Royal Insurance company are now
called upon to make their accustomed periodical Report at the
Meeting of its Shareholders.

E BRAN
The Directors have, F
as IRpleasinglyCH.
as unexpectedly, at the
close of the year, to announce, for the first time, th 000 he Fire
Premiums have not only reached, but exceed £3OO, The high comparative position held by the Royal in the
Government Returns of Duty is again fully maintained.
The profit of the business of the year exceeds considerably
the amount realised in the preceding year, and in fact sur-
passes that of any rear, with but two exceptions, since the
commencement of this Office, the balance to the credit ou
account of British and Foreign lnsUrances being £45,10? 10s.
5d., and of the North American business, which is kept sepa•
rately, £11,097165. 10d.
LIFE BRANCH.
The very gratifying duty now falls upon the Directors to
state the sum assured on n.w policies for fhe year 1862
exceeds even that of the year 1861 by £lBO,OOO, and has arrived
at the almost unexampled amount for a single year of
£701,327 on 1,498 new policies Issued. Until within the last
few years it is believed that such a sum aesured as that a hich
has just b€ en announced as the result of one year's business
was all but unheard of.
This portion of the Company's business has been carefully
watched, and cannot fail to give much satisfaction to the
shareholder, as well as no small encouragement for the
future to the participating life assurer.
Evidence of continued care in the selection of lives is amply
afforded by a statement of the number rejected. These have
amounted to 311 for the year, on which the aggregate sum
proposed for assuran,e amounts to £143,281. Various degrees
of ineligibility have led to thee lives being declined.
No small number of the Assurance Companies of the day
record their accepted lives annually at a sum not much, if at
all, exceeding* those which the Royal has declared as inadmis-
sitde in a single year from deterioration of some kind or
another.
If, to complete their review, the Directors now advert
in briefly to the United Kingdom, they have to announce that
Pire Business its progress has been undoubtedly more
rapid than that of any other Company established either in
London or elsewhere, except when amalgamations have taken
Place. The returns of duty have proved this. In Life, the
amount of New Policies already reported make all other
evidence needless.
The Directors conclude their present Report with the
expression of an opinion that the prospects of the Royal
Insurance Company were never brighter, and of a consequent
hope, founded on a grateful remembrance of the past, that
the future may unfold for it a sphere of still greater magni-
tude, combining distinguished commercial success to the
Office with a lengthened career of usefulness and protection
to the public.
