ANNUAL REPORT OF THE GOVERNMENT INSURANCE COMMISSIONER FOE THE YEAR ENDED 31st DECEMBER, 1893.

Presented to both Houses of the General Assembly pursuant to the provisions of the Acts relating to Government .Life Insurance.

Government Insurance Office, Wellington, 20th June, 1894. In compliance with statutory provisions, I have the honour to submit the accounts of the Department for the year 1893. Appended hereto is a detailed statement describing the policies issued and discontinued during the year, and showing the progress of the business of the Department since its establishment in 1870. New Business. —During the year 4,399 proposals, for a total amount of £1,016,738, were received. Of the whole of the proposals submitted, 486 were deferred or declined. Of every 100 proposals received, 82 were accepted at ordinary rates, 7 were loaded— i.e., accepted with an extra premium—and 11 were deferred or declined. Of every 100 policies completed, 93 were at ordinary rates, and 7 with an extra premium or the equivalent contingent debt. The number of policies issued was 3,237, for £740,428, being an increase on the previous year of 622 in number and £98,324 in amount. There were also granted 26 annuities, securing to their holders £1,239 per annum. The following is a condensed summary of the new policies issued by the Department during the year:—

There was an increase in the new business of both the General and the Temperance Sections. In the General Section the policies issued were 2,691, assuring £628,867, and in the Temperance Section 546, assuring £111,561. The outcome of the transactions of the year is that the net increase in the sum assured is greater than in the previous year, which was itself in advance of 1891. Premiums received,. —The total new premiums received amounted to £23,089, being £2,401 in excess of the previous year. The renewal premiums received amounted to £"214,383, being a slight increase over 1892. The gross premiums received, £"253,574, exceeded those of 1892 by £11,609. Interest. —The interest earned during the year amounted to £108,098, being £7,459 in excess of the previous year. Total Revenue. —The total revenue front all spurces showed an increase of £19,067, and amounted to £361,684.

Claims under Policies. —Death claims arose under 209 policies through the deaths of 191 policy-holders, representing (after deduction of contingent debts) a total sum assured, including bonus additions, of £"64,030. This amount is exceedingly favourable, being a decrease of more than £"20,000 as compared with the death claims of 1891 or 1892. Matured endowment assurances and children's endowments and investments amounted to £"31,843. Expenses of Management. —The expenses of management (including commission £"14,827, and land- and income-tax £"5,783) amounted to £"54,071. Although a much larger volume of new business was secured during the year, the ratio of expenses to premium income has declined, and now stands lower than for many years. Accumulated Funds. —A sum of £"18,000 was set aside to increase the investment reserve already in existence ; but, notwithstanding this step, the funds have increased by £"148,292, and at the end of the year amounted to £"2,128,590. Triennial Investigation. —The year 1893 being the last of the triennium, a valuation of the liabilities was made upon principles approved by the London Actuaries—Messrs. Bailey, Hardy, and King. The valuation showed a surplus of £"190,000, of which £'50,000 was reserved, and £"140,000 was converted into reversionary additions to participating policies. The valuation report shows that the Department has never been in a stronger financial position than at the present time. It might be mentioned that the Actuary and his staff have been most assiduous in pushing on the completion of the valuation, the result having been reported as early as the 21st March. The work of allotting the individual bonuses was completed and the bonus certificates despatched from the Head 'Office by the end of April, being several months earlier than has been the case on any previous occasion. General Remarks. —The year 1893 has been one of solid progress for the Department, notwithstanding the depression in trade which has been felt more or less throughout all the colonies. The accounts which accompany this report will show that in essential particulars the office has more than held its own. Whilst the rate of interest earned has remained practically constant, the mortality has been exceptionally light, and the rate of expenses shows a still further decline ; in addition to which the new business shows an increase of nearly £"100,000, and the net increase of the office is greater than at any time during the past eight years. JOSEPHUS H. RICHARDSQN, Commissioner.

Wellington, 7th June, 1894. In accordance with instructions received, I have- made a careful investigation of the Department's liabilities as on the 31st December, 1893, with the object of ascertaining the surplus available for distribution amongst the policyholders. There were 31,555 policies for valuation, assuring £8,302,257, in respect of which tabular premiums amounting to £239,334 ss. 7d. are receivable annually. The following summary will show the various classes to which these policies belong :—■

There were also 154 annuities providing for total yearly payments of £7,855 7s. 2d. to the holders. PROGRESS OF BUSINESS DURING THE TRIENNIUM. Since the last valuation in 1890 there has been a net increase of 3,555 in the number of policies, £758,227 in the sum assured, and £19,487 9s. sd. in the tabular annual premiums. The annuities have increased from 102 for £5,668 14s. 4d. per annum to 154 for £7,855 7s. 2d.

ACTUARY'S REPORT.

THE BASIS OF VALUATION. On the occasion of the last valuation the rate of interest assumed in the calculations was reduced from 4J to 4 per cent. After a careful consideration of all the surrounding circumstances, it was decided to make no further change at present in the nominal basis of valuation, but to make such special reserves as would enable the rate of interest to be still further reduced without inconvenience at a future valuation. The standard of valuation adopted is, therefore, the |-| M mortality experience, with 4 per cent, interest. Before finally deciding this important matter the Department sought the advice of the eminent English Actuaries, Messrs. A. H. Bailey, Ralph P. Hardy, and George King, who acquiesced in the adoption of the above mentioned basis, on condition that a suitable reserve should be made from the gross surplus, "both as a general measure of precaution, and as a means of eventually strengthening the valuation reserves against a fall in the rate of interest." I have endeavoured to fully meet this condition by recommending that such a sum should be reserved as would make the valuation virtually equal to one by |—J M 3f per cent. The English Government Annuitants' Mortality Experience (1884), with 4 per cent, interest, has been used for valuing the immediate annuities; and for simple endowments and investments the amount of premiums paid, accumulated at 4 per cent, interest, has been reserved as the net liability. Technical details respecting the formulae adopted, and the assumptions made in applying them, will be found in the Fourth Schedule which accompanies this Eeport. It will merely be necessary to say here that the valuation has been made on a strictly pure premium basis, i.e., the pure premiums only have been considered as an asset, leaving the total loading, amounting to £40,596 per annum, —equal to 17 per cent, of the office premium income, and worth £536,014, —as a provision for further expenses and contingencies. This is exclusive of the extra premiums, amounting to £4,647 per annum, which have not been reckoned on at all. An adequate extra reserve has been made for the future expenses of limited premium policies, and the immediate payment of death claims has been provided for by suitable modifications of the valuation formulae. KESULTS OF THE VALUATION. The full valuation schedule appears in Table 8., cf which the following is a condensed summary :— £ Value of £8,270,303, sums assured (participating) .. .. .. .. 3,957,359-7 Value of £518,998, reversionary bonu.s additions, and reductions of premiums 283,902-5 Reserve for extra premiums of £4,647 per annum .. .. 1,144-5 Keserve of loading on limited-premium and paid-up policies .. .. .. 13,641-7 Special adjustment reserve .. .. .. .. .. .. .. 236-9 4,256,285-3 Value of annuities of £7,855 per annum .. .. .. .. .. 67,706-9 Eeservo for 416 miscellaneous policies (non-participating) .. .. .. 10,4009 4,334,393-1 Deduct value of £197,792 per annum, future pure premiums .. .. .. 2,395,803-2 Net liability .. .. .. .. .. .. £1,938,589-9

ACTUARY'S REPORT.

It will be seen by the Consolidated Eevenue Account (Table C) that, after making a further reserve of £18,000 for possible depreciation of freehold and mortgage securities, the accumulated funds at the 31st December, 1893, amounted to £2,128,589 18s. There is, therefore, a gross surplus of assets over liabilities of £190,000, as shown by the valuation balance-sheet given in Table D. ALLOTMENT OF SURPLUS. Of the total ascertained surplus of £190,000 the profit made during the triennium was £152,000, the balance of £38,000 being the special reserve of £32,652 made at the last valuation with interest accumulations. Having ascertained that a special reserve of £50,000 would serve to bring the present valuation up to the standard of [—I M 3f per cent., I recommended in my interim report of the 21st March that a further reserve of £12,000 should be drawn from the profits of the triennium for that purpose. This recommendation was accepted, and, in the interval which has elapsed, the divisible surplus of £140,000 has been allotted to the participating policyholders, securing reversionary additions to policies amounting to £277,267 18s. The surplus was divided between the General and Temperance Sections in accordance with " The Government Life Insurance Acts Amendment Act, 1890," the result being that Temperance policies received slightly higher bonuses than General policies, which were like them in all other respects. This point is illustrated in the following Table of Reversionary Bonuses allotted to whole-life policies in the two sections: —

The premiums having been twice raised—in 1877 and in 1885 —I have distinguished between the policies under the three different rates. After eight years' duration, the Temperance bonuses in the foregoing table relate to policies which were transferred from the General Section in the years 1887 and 1888. MOKTALITY, INTEREST, AND EXPENSES. Mortality.— The mortality experienced by the policyholders has been very light throughout the triennium. The profit from this source was estimated and divided amongst the policyholders by the method devised by Messrs. Bailey, Hardy, and King in 1887. The question of the relative vitality of abstaining and non-abstaining policyholders is doubtless an extremely interesting one, and on the present occasion the monetary results are slightly in favour of the total abstainers.

ACTUARY'S REPORT.

But it would be unwise to infer therefrom that the Temperance bonuses will necessarily be higher than the others in future. Such a small body as the Temperance Section is at present is subject to fluctuations which might at any time cause the opposite result. A summary of the mortality experienced in the General and Temperance Sections respectively is given in Table E. A noteworthy fact in connection with the deaths of the triennium, although not shown in the summary, is that no women suffered violent deaths, although fully 8 per cent, of the total number of deaths were those of women, and over 14 per cent, were due to suicide, homicide, or accident. The statistics relating to the proposals accepted and declined, and new policies issued during the triennium, show that the tendency of very recent years has been to rate up fewer proposals and to decline more. This will be gathered from the following schedule :—

Interest. —At the close of the triennium the funds of the department were earning about 5-Jper cent, interest, a rate slightly lower than that which was being obtained at the beginning of the period. The decline is principally due to a lowering of the rate of interest on Government securities from 5 to 4J per cent. The yearly average rates of interest earned in the past have been as follows: — £ s. a. II £ s. a. Year 1871-72 ..572 tier cent, per annum. I! Year 1883 ..562 per cent, per annum. „ 1872-73 ..532,, „ „ 1884 ..567 „ 1873-74 ..497,, „ „ 1885 ..506 „ 1874-75 .. 415 0 „ „ 1886 .. 419 9 „ 1875-76 ..512,, „ „ 1887 ..538 „ 1876-77 .. 417 11 „ „ „ 1888 ..557 „ 1877-78 .. 418 6 „ „ 1889 ..573 „ 1878-79 ..509,, „ „ 1890 .. 5 811 „ 1879-80 ..516,, „ „ 1891 ..582 „ 1880-81 ..544,, „ „ 1892 ..552 „ 1881-82 ..535,, „ „ 1893 ..553 ,; Half-year 1882 ..544 Expenses. —The total expenditure of the period under review, including taxes and commission, amounted to £160,012 3s. 7d. The ratio of expenses to income has declined substantially during the triennium, and now stands lower than for many years past. In view of the small loading contained in the premiums it is to be desired that this ratio should still further diminish. It is only right, however, to point out that the taxes accounted for £18,756 13s. lid. of the total amount, being 2-70 per cent, of the premium income during the period. In their last report Messrs. Bailey, Hardy, and King drew attention to this matter in the following words: " The property-tax, the burden of which was unimportant five years ago, has become a serious item, being 2'55 per cent, of the premium income during the quinquennium, with a certainty of material increase. The accumulation of the funds of a comparatively young life assurance institution increases more rapidly than the premium income, so that the property-tax, being levied upon the capital, becomes every year a heavier charge." This matter is of the greatest importance in reference to future bonuses, and I therefore set forth the following schedule in order to compare the taxation of the Department with that imposed upon English and Australian offices. This information is taken from the latest reports of those offices which state their taxation separately :—

ACTUARY'S REPORT.

GENERAL REMABKS. The liability on account of the Department's annuities, though relatively small as compared with the insurance liabilities, shows signs of increasing rapidly. In view of this fact, and of the probability that annuitants resident in New Zealand are subject to an abnormally light mortality, I think it desirable that the existing rates for annuities should receive consideration, and possibly revision, during the present triennium. The few non-participating assurances and endowments, the liability on which is trifling, call for no remark. The scale of surrender values at present in use is quite safe, but I think it might with advantage be simplified in a few minor respects, and the matter will receive early consideration. I recommend that interim bonuses be granted to policies becoming claims during the triennium at the same rate as at present. The net result of the investigation I have made is to show that the department occupies an exceptionally strong position in reference to the liabilities on its policies. In conclusion, it is my pleasant duty to bear witness to the excellent manner in which the work of valuation and distribution was carried out by those members of the staff to whom it was entrusted, under the immediate supervision of the Bonus Clerk, Mr. J. W. Kinniburgh. It was mainly owing to their willing co-operation that I was enabled to complete the division of profits and hand over the bonus certificates in less than four months from the valuation date. Eespectfully submitted by MORRIS POX, The Government Insurance Commissioner. Actuary.

FOURTH SCHEDULE. Statement eespecting the Valuation op the Liabilities undeb Life Policies and Annuities of the G-ovebnment Insueance Depabtment, to be made by the actuaet. Question I.—The date up to which the valuation is made. Answer. —The 31st December, 1893. Question 2. —The principles on which the valuation and distribution of profits among the policy-holders are made. Answer. — (a.) The Principles adopted in the Valuation. —The valuation has been strictly a " net premium valuation" at true age, with adequate extra reserves for limited-premium policies and prompt payment of claims. No extra premiums or loadings whatever have been treated as an asset in the valuation. Valuation of Ordinary Whole-life Assurances, comprising 61 per cent, of the total sum assured. It being found that the total premium income of the office fell due on the average about six months from the date of valuation, the addition of \ was made to the annuity in the valuation formula. The pure premium valued was the yearly premium, or equivalent annual premium where the policy was renewable more often than once a year, for an assurance payable at the moment of death. The reversion used for valuing the sums assured and bonuses was the reversion payable at the moment of death. The valuation formula was therefore— T 00-pWf-o +ff "k A x +n — Yv \ «>+n) ■ The valuation age, %+n, was obtained by deducting the year of birth from the year of valuation, and adding half a year. The entry age, x, is the true age at entry. The ordinary class valuation by the method of year-of-birth groupings resulted in a net liability of .€872,434, whilst the detailed valuation gave a net liability of .€872,611 ; the difference being only J2177. The following table shows the amount reserved on ordinary whole-life policies payable by whole-life premiums for every €100 of sum assured: —

Valuation of Endowment Assurances, comprising nearly 34 per cent, of the total sum assured. Every policy was separately valued as at the next renewal date, assuming the next premium just due and unpaid. The premium valued was the net premium that would have been charged if the policy had been renewable yearly. The valuation formula used was Ab+m : i-» I 0-~^a x+n: t-n-l ])■ The valuation age, x+ n, was obtained by deducting the year of birth from 1894. The unexpired term, t— n, was obtained by subtracting 1894 from the year of maturity, and adding that fraction of a year corresponding to the premiums falling due between 31st December and the anniversary of the policy.

FOURTH SCHEDULE.

Limited-premium Policies, comprising 5 per cent, of the total sum assured, were valued in the same manner as ordinary wholelife policies for the sum assured, and like endowment assurances for the pure premiums, except that the premium is for an assurance payable at the moment of death. (b.) The Principles adopted in allotting the Surplus. —The divisible surplus was allotted amongst the policy-holders thus : — (1.) The profit arising from the excess of interest realised over the valuation rate of 4 per cent, was divided amongst those participating policies in force at the last valuation date which remained in force at the present valuation, in proportion to their H M 4 per cent, reserves at 31st December, 1890. (2.) The remaining surplus was divided amongst all the participating policies in proportion to the loading on the premiums paid on each policy during the triennium, policies secured by a limited number of premiums being treated as though the premiums had been spread over the whole term of the policy. The approximate profit from favourable mortality in the General Section and Temperance Section respectively was ascertained, and specially divided amongst the members of the respective sections. The result was that temperance policies received slightly higher reversionary bonuses than general policies, which were like them in all other respects. The divisible surplus was converted into reversionary bonuses by means of the II M table of mortality with 4 per cent, interest. In all cases of rated-up lives, such lives were treated as though they had been of the higher age for bonus purposes. Question 3. —The table or tables of mortality used in the valuation. Answer. — For assurances, the Institute of Actuaries' Healthy Males (H M) Table was used; and for annuities the Government Annuitants' Experience, 1884. Question 4. —The rate or rates of interest assumed in the calculations. Answer. —The rate of interest assumed throughout was 4 per cent. Question s.—The proportion of the annual-premium income (if any) reserved as a provision for future expenses and profits. Answer. —The whole of the loading, amounting to £40,596 per annum, has been reserved for future expenses and profits, in addition to a special reserve of £13,642 for limited-premium policies. Question 6.—The Consolidated Eevenue Account since the last valuation. Answer. —The Consolidated Revenue Account since the last valuation is given in Table C, page 16. Question 7. —The liabilities of the Department under life policies and annuities at the date of the valuation, showing the number of policies, the amount assured, and the amount of premiums payable annually under each class of policies, both with and without participation in profits; and also the net liabilities and assets of the Department, with the amount of surplus or deficiency. Answer. —The liabilities under life policies and annuities are shown in Table B, pages 14, 15. The net liabilities and assets of the Department, with the surplus, are shown in Table D, page 16.

Question 8. —The time during which a policy must be in force in order to entitle it to share in the profits. Answer. —Every participating policy which was in force on the 31st December, 1893, shared in the profits. The bonuses follow the sum assured, vesting immediately, but not acquiring a surrender value until the policy has been two years in force. Question 9. —The results of the valuation, showing— (1.) The total amount of profit made by the Department: (2.) The amount of profit divided amongst the policy-holders, and the number and amount of the policies which participated : (3.) Specimens of bonuses allotted to policies for £100 effected at the respective ages of 20, 30, 40, and 50, and having been respectively in force for five years, ten years, and upwards, at intervals of five years respectively, together with the amounts apportioned under the various modes in which the bonus might be received. Answer. —-(1.) The total amount of profit undivided on the 31st December, 1893, as shown by the valuation, was £190,000. Interim . . . bonuses amounting to £5,314 14s. 4d. were paid during the triennium. (2.) The amount of profit divided amongst policy-holders, as at the 31st December, 1893, was £140,000, which has been converted into reversionary bonuses amounting to £277,267 18s. The number and amount of policies which participated were— 31,139 policies, for the sum of £8,270,303 10s. 2d.; or, including reversionary bonus additions, £8,789,301 19s. 2d. Six policies assuring £775 were transferred to a non-profit section (which now contains eleven policies for £1,825), in accordance with " The Government Life Insurance Acts Amendment Act, 1890."

ANSWER TO QUESTION 8. The Amounts of all Annuities other than those specified under Heading No. 7.

Question 9. —The average rate of interest at which the funds of the Department were invested at the close of each year during the period since the last investigation. Answer. —At the close of each financial year the average rate of interest at - ■ • which the funds of the Department were invested for that year was as follows :■ —■ £ s. d. 1891 ... ... ... 5 8 2 1892 ... ... ... 5 5 2 1893 ... ... ... 553 Question 10. —A table of minimum values, if any, allowed for the surrender of policies for the whole term of life, and for endowments and endowment assurances; or a statement of the method pursued in calculating such surrender values, with instances of its application to policies of different standing, and taken out at various interval ages, from the youngest to the eldest. Answer. —The minimum surrender values for whole-life and endowment assurance policies issued at the present rates of premium are given in Appendix No. 5. In the case of children's endowments (premiums returnable) half the premiums paid are returned as surrender value after one year, and 90 per cent, after two years. Endowments without return of premium are treated specially. Question 11. —A statement to be furnish'ed of the manner in which policies on unhealthy lives are dealt with. Answer. —When proposals are made on lives.which, although not of such inferior quality as to merit total rejection, are considered not to reach the requisite standard for insurance at the ordinary rates of premium, such proposals are accepted at increased rates. Great refinement is not attempted in the assessment of lives, proposals being as a rule either accepted at par, with an extra premium of 10s. per cent, of the sum assured, an extra of 20s. per cent., or declined. The alternative of a fixed contingent debt in lieu of extra premium, if not remissible, is always offered. The true age is taken as the basis of valuation and surrender calculations, excepting in the cases of bonuses and paid-up policies, the surrender values of which are calculated at the rated-up ages. The Appendices alluded to above have been compiled under the immediate supervision of Mr. Morris Fox, the Actuary to the Department. JOSEPHUS H. RICHARDSON, Government Insurance Commissioner.
