Tile "Re?eirre Fund." The folio wi g explanation is all that ia requi? nte for the complete understanding of the re? port by those not conversant with the subject: The' 'reserve" fund of a Life Icsuranco Com? pany is that sum in hand which, improved at a given rate of interest, will be sufficient, together with future premiums to be paid, to meet all obligations as they become due. If a company has the required tum for reserve, it ia solvent and can continue business; if it has not, it is insolvent and the law will interfere with its continuance. Of course the size of the reserve required depends very largely upon what rate or interest is assumed. The higher that rate is assumed to be, the faster the fund will accumulate at compound interest, and hence the smaller the present sum in hand may be; the lower the rate of interest, the more slow the accumulation, and hence the larger the re? serve required must be. Massachusetts has adopted^ per cent, interest as the standard used for determining the required reserve; the state of Kew York adopts a lower standard, namely 4A per cent, interest. Hence tbe reserve of a j company, and its surplus. If any, as made in the offioial reports of the insurance depart? ments of the two States, do not agree; but if ? the New York standard is safo, the Massacbu- ? se?"*:one must be safer, and the New York Life therefore employs tba Massachusetts one j in making its own calculations, tbat being the highest standard used. Titus, by the Mas-1 sachusetts standard of interest, the reserve of the New York Life was $16.341 177 on the lu of | January. 1872, and its Buplus over all liabilities $1,483,134. as computed and published in the Company's regular annual report. But if the rate of interest to be hereafter realized is as? sumed at the N1 w York rate, 4i per cent., the reserve is $15.685,000 and the surplus cor sc quently $2.644,811. Tho policy of the New York Life is, to establish and maintain perfect security above all other things. - Wtn <??0?>?, ??r.
