Progress of the Standard Life Assurance Company during the
year 1846:—
The new Policies- issued from the 15th of November, 1845, to
15th of November, 1846, the Company's business year, amounted to
692, the number of proposals made to the Company during the same
period being 769.
The amount of New Assurances, covered by the 592 New Policies
issued during the year, was 368,6791. 7s. 10d. (an average of 6251.
for each Policy) ; the amount of Assurances applied for during the
year being 476,1351. 17s. 9d.
The claims were moderate, both in number and amount, and
considerably less than shown by the mortality tables on which the
Company's calculations are founded. The results in other branches
of the business were favourable.
The business of the Commercird Life Assurance Company of Scot-
land was transferred to the Standard Company during the year
1846, being 398 Policies, cov,cning about 200,000/. of assurance, and
being in addition to the new 'oustness of the year above reported.
The business of the York and London Assurance Company, which
Was transferred to the Standard Company in 1844, continued to exhi-
bit satisfactory results in it 3 progressive development.
The revenue of the Corn .pony exceeded 120,000/. per annum.
The Standard Life Assur.unee Company is so constituted as to afford
the benefits of Life Assurance to all who may seek its protection in
that form which is best suited to attain their object; while to those
Who look to the advantage to be derived by way of bonus to their
Policies from the favourable results of the business, there is every
inducement to connect themselves with the Company.
Bonus additions to Policies have been declared on three owe-
:lions—in 1835, in 1840, and in 1845.
The following are the examples of the additions made :
Policy of 1825 for £l,OOO increased to £1,600 0 8
