THIRTIETH ANNUAL PEPORT, For the year ending 31st December, 1878. The results of the operations of the year 1878 have been most satisfactory. They may be summed up as fellows :—An increase of J5216,187 2s. 9d. i» the Premium Income, raising the total Premiums to < £ 1,537,342 15s. 4d. per annum; an augmentation of X259,616 7s. lOd. to the Assurance Funds; and a general reduction of expenditure of Two and a. half per cent. on the Annual Premium Income. The total sum paid in Claims in both Branches now amounts to j £ 2,763,589 8s. The Investments of the year have been still re- stricted to those of the highest class, chiefly British Government Securities, Freehold Ground Rents, House Property, Mortgages, and Reversions. ORDINARY BRANCH. In this Branch, the New Business completed during the year consists of 4,040 Policies, assuring the sum of .£506,317, and producing a New Annual Premium Income of £ 17,834 4s. 2d. The Expenses of the Branch have been reduced three per cent. on the Annual Premium Income. The Annual Premium Incoc.e at the end of the year is .£101,882 15s. 4d., showing an increase of £ 8,530 Gs. 9d. over the year 1877. INDUSTRIAL BRANCH. In this Branch the Annual Premium Income at the close of the year is Xl,435,460, receivable under 3,659,432 Policies, showing: an increase of £ 207,656 16s. in thg Premium Income, and 443,242 in the number of Polieies. The total expenses of this Branch, as compared with the previous year, show a reduction of two and a-half per eent. on the Premium Income.
