All the advantages peculiar to mutual Life Assurance, aris-
ing from a division amongst the assured of the whole of the
mutual Profits, and that security and freedom from responsibi-
lity which Proprietary Companies can alone afford, are com-
bined by the constitution of the London, Edinburgh, and
Dublin Life Assurance Company, which is the only guaranteed
Mutual Society. The rates of premium are somewhat lower
than in most of the mutual offices, and for the non-participating,
and for those who effect assurances for temporary purposes, or
debtor and creditor transactions, Tables of Premium have been
prepared, by which a less immediate payment is required than
by any other plan.
By a half premium credit system one-half of the premiums
may be retained for the first seven years, and repaid at the con-
venience of the assured: and by the Ascending Scale a greatly
diminished rate of premium is required for the first twelve years.
