ACCUMULATED FUND EXCEEDING
- - - - - -

ONE MILLION & FORTY THOUSAND POUNDS

ANNUAL REVENUE EXCEEDING

ONE HUNDRED & EIGHTY THOUSAND POUNDS'

THIS INSTITUTION is the oldest, and, in pc; of bu-
siness, the most extensive LIFE OFFICE in Scot rd.
A slight consideration of the following st ements will
abundantly satisfy intending Assurers that ere is not at
this time any other LIFE OFFICE in th nited Kingdom
which, whether in respect of _

The sound principles on which it is constituted, •
The unprecedented prosperity of its course throughout,
The selection of its Lives,

The successful investment of its Funds, and
The uniform promptness and liberality of its settlements,
can hold out more solid advantages, especially to that impor-
tant class of Assnrances effected as FAMILY PROVISIONS.
The WHOLE SURPLUS PROFITS belong to the AS-
SURED, and are divisible septennially.
As ascertained from the investigation at 31st December,
1838, these Profits were sufficient to secure—

lst,—A RETROSPECTIVE BONUS of Two per
Cent. per Annum, or FOURTEEN per Cent. for the
Septennial Period, not only on the Original Sum as-
sured, but likewise on the BONUS ADDITIONS
PREVIOUSLY DECLARED.
2d,—A CONTINGENT PROSPECTIVE BONUS of
Two per Cent. per Annum, to be paid from 31st De-
cember, 1838, on all Policies of Five years' standing
that may emerge before 31st December, 1845, when
next Investigatioh takes place.

The Directors are empowered to grant LOANS to MEM-
BERS, on the Security of their Policies, to the extent of
nine-tenths of their value at the time, and also, on application
to that effect being made by parties, to convert their BONUS
ADDITIONS into an equivalent deduction from the future
ANNUAL PREMIUMS, or to give them in ready money the
value of the additions at the date of application.

PRACTICAL ILLUSTRATIONS OF THE ABOVE.
A, in January, 1820, being then 40 years of age, insured his
life for £3OOO, paying an annual Premium of .... £9B ss.
He is now 61 years of age, and has an actual vested Bonus or
Addition, declared and attached to his Policy of £1035 125.,
which, with the £3OOO, the original sum assured, shows
the full amount of the sum presently contained in the Po-
licy to he £4035 12s.
Were A to die after Payment of his Premium for the current
year, the sum payable under the Policy would be

. 44277 14s. 9d.
Were he to die in 1845, after payment of his premium for
that year, the sum payable under the Policy would be

_
£4600 Ils. Od.
Or if it would be an object to him to reduce his present an-
nual contribution, he might, by giving up his Bonus, reduce
his future premiums from £9B ss. to £24 9s. sd.
Or if he preferred receiving immediately the present value of
his Bonus, he would, by surrendering it, be entitled to a
sum of

Assurances effected PREVIOUS TO 31sT DECEMBER
are entitled to participate in the PROFITS OF THE
CURRENT YEAR.
