Extracts from the Report of the Directors for 1853 : -
" The Directors congratulate their fellow-members on the very grati-
fring result of the recently completed Quinquennial Investigation of
the assets and liabilities of the Institution, by which it appears that,
on the 20th November, 1852, after providing for the present value of
all the liabildies in the Life Assurance Department, a surplus re-
. isainel of 242,6271., which has been duly apportioned as heretofore. -
" The reductions range from sto 89 per cent. on the original Annual er
Premiums, according to the age of the party and the time the Policy b)
has-been in force; and the Bonuses vary in like manner, from 50 to PI
75 per cent. on the amount of premiums paid during the last five
su
m
sears.
"The total amount of the reductions per annum for the ensuing five re
Years is 33,3481. 17s. 2d.
" The Bonuses assigned to those policies on which the original rc
pre-
miums continue to be paid amount to 89,8801. ss. Od. ; this, together ti]
with Bonuses apportioned at former divisions, makes an aggregate -
addition to the sums assured by the Policies in force of 126,5641.
" Notwithstanding the great reduction of Premiums, the net annual
income arising from 12,326 existing Policies is i 63,9121. 7 ld.; this -,,
sum, with the interest on invested capital, viz., 37,298/. 75. 3d., "
k
Shows a total annual income of 201,210/. 145. 4d."
The amount of Capital exceeds ONE MILLION STERLING. N 1
