Chief Office HOLBORN BARS , LONDON Summary of the Report presented at the Sixty - Fifth Annual Meeting , held on 8th March , 1914 ORDINARY BRANCH . - The number of policies issued during the year was 71,859 , assuring the sum of 46,848,224 , and producing a new annual premium income of 2425,717 . The premiums received during the year were 24,920,518 , being an increase of 293,525 over the year 1912. In addition , 11,116 was received in Tabmiums under the Sickness Insurance The claims of the year amounted to £ 3,766,625 . The number of deaths was 8,699 . The number of endowment assurances matured was 25,497 , the premium income of which was £ 131,0mber of policies in force at the end of The the year was 917,091 . INDUSTRIAL BRANCH . - The premiums received during the year were 227,874,456 , being an increase of 281,894 . The increase shown would have been much greater but for the fact that , owing to our system of accounts , fifty - three weekly collections were credited in the report for the year 1912 . The claims of the year amounted to £ 3,139,193 , including 2359,572 bonus additions . The number of claims and surrenders , including 5.942 endowment assurances matured , was 366,104 . The number of free policies granted during the year to those policyholders of five years standing and upwards , who desired to die- continue their payments , was 126,768 , the number in force being 1,890,406 . The number of free policies which became claims during the year was 40,546 . The total number of policies in force in this Branch at the end of the year was 19,778,135 ; their average duration exceeds twelve and three - quarter years . The assets of the Company , in both Branches , as shown in the balance sheet , after deducting £ 1,750,000 written off securities , are 286,993,003 , being an increase of £ 2,421,071 over those of 1912 . sickness and maternity benefita commenced on the 18th January , 1915 , and during the year a sum of $ 1,401,860 was distributed to members by the Company & Agenta . It may be noted that in a Government Inter - Departmental Report recently presented to Parliament , particular attention is drawn to the advantage of payment in cash by a representative of the Society . The Report continues : The fact that a personal visit accompanies the payment imposes some restraint on any temptation to claim benefit improperly . The risk of the benefit falling into wrong hands is reduced to a minimum . A In the Ordinary Branch a reversionary bonus at the rate of 41 16a . per cent . on the original suma sasured has again been added to all classes of participating policies issued since the year 1876 . In the Industrial branch a bonus addition will be made to the sums assured on all policies of over five years ' duration which become claims either by death or maturity of endowment from the 6th of March , 1914 , to the 4th of March , 1915 , both dates inclusive , as follows : - BONUS ADDITION TO PREMIUMS PAID FOR . 5 years and less than 10 years 10 15 BUMS ASSURED . £ 5 per cent . 10 " " " " 15 20 " 20 25 " " " 26 " 40 " 45 " 50 " " 55 " " 60 " upwards . The rate of bonus declared for the last year has thus been maintained , and an increased bonus of 25 per cent , will be distributed in the case of policies on which premiums have been paid for 35 and less than 40 years , 45 and less than 50 years , and 58 end less than 60 years . The six Prudential Approved Societies formed ander the National Insurance Act 1911 have done important work during the year , and the membership continues to increase .

These values have been compared with the middle market prices on 31st December , 1913 , due allowance being made for accrued interest , and the difference is more than provided for by the Investments Reserve Funds .
