23. (1) The profits of a company, whether mutual or proprietary, from the business of life insurance shall be the investment income of the life insurance fund less the management expenses (including commission) attributable to that business: Provided that where such a company transacts life insurance business both in the Colony, whether directly or through an agent, and elsewhere, the profits from business in the Colony shall be deemed to be the same proportion of the total investment income of the life insurance fund of the company as the premiums from life insurance business in the Colony bear to the total life insurance premiums received by the company, subject to a deduction of agency expenses in the Colony (including commission) and a fair proportion of the expenses of the head office of the company, due account being taken in each case by set-off against such expenses of any income or profits other than life insurance premium or investment income.
(2) The profits of a company, whether mutual or proprietary, from the business of insurance (other than life insurance) shall be ascertained by taking the gross premiums from insurance business in the Colony (less any premiums returned to the insured and premiums paid on re-insurance) and deducting therefrom a reserve for unexpired risks at the percentage adopted by the company in relation to its operations as a whole for such risks at the end of the period of which the profits are being ascertained, and adding thereto.
