NATIONAL LOAN FUND LIFE ASSU-
, RANCE SOC[ETT.
OFFICE, 26, CORNHILL, LONDON.
Capital 500,0001.
Empowered by Act of Parliament.
The system of Deferred Annuities, originally proposed by the Na-
tional bean Fued Life Assurance Society, for the better advance-
rnef it of the objects of Benefit and Friendly Societcs, having received
the approbation of a considerable hotly f the active members and
officers of those Institutions, and the Directors ot the National ~00n
Fund Society having been urgently solicited by them to estabiieli
Branch Ottice in cennexion with those societies and the Operative
Classes generally, in which their services night be successfully en-
eaged, a Committee has lii•en sanctioned by the Directors 10 Open
communication with the different S cieties, with the view of more
effectually d sseminating the valuable benefits amongst the suing
trious classes, and a plat. hits been ironosed with that object.
ADDRESS )F THE COMM ITTEE.
Many praiseworthy but ineffectual attempts have been made to
bring within the scope and operation of the laws of mot 'Linty anti
money the savings of the industrious classes, as well as various cal-
culations regulating their distribution, having for their object either
immediate, contingent, or deferred benefits.
A slight examination, however, will demonstrate that the con-
struction of these ase• eiations or societies is defective; and that in-
stead of affording an easy' acc—ss and a free choice of i ;vestment,
which should be the oriyilege of every one, they contine too ear-
rwly the channel through which a benefit can alone lie secured ;
and, in proportion as their action is circumscribed and enitiarrasital,
their utility is united. For example, it is not to every individual
or to every class amongst the industrious community, that provision
In case of sickness is an object of such importance as to call for a
pecnniary sacrifice ; whi e to others such a provision appears more
attractive, and the hiss of employment caused by sickness Is a risk
against which they desire to he guarded. For this anomalous state
of things there Is an effective and simple remedy ; that is to say,
Instead of covering, by one weekly or annual payment, two or more
contingent or deterred hellcats, so to arrange it that each separate
benefit should have its separate contribution.
It is to not having ohs trved this rule, and to the association of
two dissimilar fan...lions, and by confounding a sick allowance and
ae annuity fund in one and the sell same payment, that much of the
evils and mismanagement has arisen amongst Benefit Societies.
No mechanisai can he so perfect for the management 01 a sick -
,ees-fund provision as that afforded by the constant sectional AM/-
elation and watchfulness of the several members composing it. By
this means a thorough and constant check is mutually. exercised, and
none but the really sick are likely to become chargeable noon it.
But the same perfection, or the Same se amity, is seldom attainable
where a fund is to be accumulated through a succession of years,
and where results are to bear oat calculations, money investment
being in general beyond the experience of the Industrious classes.
For these reasons it is clear that the funds destined for a provision in
sickness should be kept entirely distinct from the rind intended as a
provision for o'd age :
lst Because the laws ot sickness and mortality, though apparently
Connected, do not depend on the same calculation.
2d. Because there are a great number who, in order to secure a
larger provision in old age are willing to take the risk of providing
for probable sickness on themselves.
34. Because the responsibility of managing a provision for old ago,
continued to a distant period is, in a great measure, incompatible
with voluntary associations, fluctuating laws, and holly dual irre-
sponsibility, and more exposed to a failure in the performance of
such a contract, that when undertaken on the same principles that
the n samee for
r
ordinarily govern commercial bodies.
411 t. Because the expenses of providing for sickness must, when
lotted
t i h
nish still more this provision : nor is i? yrislom or good policy to en-
danger tp;etysmakeent.:7tithheportohveirs for old age, tend to dimi-
.ion
impressed with these convictions, and with en intimate knowledge
of the discussions passing within the bosom of many of the existing
Friendly and Benefit Societies, the parties whose names are here-
onto attached, have had several meetings, with a view of proposing
or adopting a remedy for those and other evils ; and in this manner
to give an ad !Would force to the principles of brotherhoi al, unity,
and mutual aid, on which friendly societies are based, by guarding
them from the risks of sudden dissolution.
After much diligent search ETlOn.st the combinations ingeniously
proposed from time to thne for the attainment of one of the principal
objects of Friendly and Benefit Societies, they have found none equal
in simplicity and comprehensiveness ot design, as well as forethought
and sympathy tor the wants of the industrious classes, as the plan
proposed by the National Lo in Fund Lite Assurance Society. It is
true that the author of that plan has furnished an argument against
provision in sickness; but, without concurring in the immediate ex-
pediency ot- abandoning a provision in sickness, no one can read the
other part of the plan itself, without being fully sa isfled that the
convenience and safety of Friendly and Llenefit Societies will be
greatly secured and consulted, by separating the payment of a sick
allowance front an annuity for old age.
A deputation having waited on the directors of the National Loan
Fund, who met in the handsomest manner the overtures made to
them for the establishment of a separate office for the transaction of
business connected with Friendly and Benefit Societies, and the in-
dustrious clases in general, resolutions have been entered into, con-
stituting the undersigned as a Committee, with power to add to its
number, for the promulgation of the benefits contained in the an-
nexed orospectu., under the guarantee of the Capital of the society,
and which, without interfering with the numerous objects connected
with the institution of Benefit and Friendly Societies, will in their
opinion greatly enlarge their sphere of utility, and afford a protection
to the working classes in old age and adversity, which nothing up to
the present day has adequately secured to them.
