Further it appears to me that the rate of

interest laid down is unnecessarily severe for companies

established in the Fast where high interest is obtainable on their funds. A company earning a high rate of interest on its funds does not require to carry such large reserves as a

company earning a lower rate, and to compel a company earning an average rate of interest of say 7% which I believe is not an unusual thing out here, to value at 4% is to apply an unnecessa- -rily severe test and would result in many companies being

declared insolvent which in reality would not only be far from

it but be in a position to declare handsome bonuses to ita

policy holders. It has been established by eminent actuaries that a margin of 1% to 14% between the average rate of

interest earned and that assumed in the valuation is amply

sufficient not only to provide the full amount of reserves

required but also to provide a good compound Reversionary

Bonus. This being so it is manifest that to make the test of

solvency of a company i.e. its ability to pay the face value of

its contracts as they become due, more stringent than is re-

-quisite to pay the policies in full together with a compound

reversionary bonus is not only unnecessary but unfair to all

concerned.

In Great Britain where the average rate of interest earned by Life Companies is under 4% the average rate

of valuation is 3% though there is a tendency now to reduce this

to 24 or 21%. It would be a dangerous thing however to assume that a company that passed a 4% valuation test was insolvent

unless it could be shown that the average rate of interest

earned for sometime past had fallen considerable below that

figure. Theoretically the correct test would be a valuation

at the actual average rate of interest earned by the company in

the past. Should it then be shown that this rate was unlikely

to be realised in the future, provisions could be rade for

reducing the valuation rate and increasing the reserves for

the future.
