iOOVERNMENT LIFE INSURANCE v* DEPARTMENT. Established 1870. EVERY POLICY 'GUARANTEED BY THE STATE. The two prime reasons which have led to the extraordinary bonuses which this office has been able to declare have been its ECONOMICAL MANAGEMENT and its REMARKABLY FAVOURABLE MORTALITY EXPERIENCE. “The Australasian Insurance and Banking Record” says, —“lt [the N. Z. Government office] possesses the splendid advantage of operating in perhaps the healthiest country in the world." To this, coupled with rigid care in the selection of lives, has been due the unprecedentedly low rate of mortality which the office has enjoyed. Year by year the actual deaths have fallen far short of what was anticipated, and the funds thereby saved have all gone to swell the profits which at the last valuation (December, 1885) amounted in cash to more than—£242,ooo Sterling. Present FUNDS over 1J MILLION POUNDS. ANNUAL INCOME exceeds £282,000. F. W. FBANKLAND, F.1.A., 8] Commissioner and Govt. Actuary.
