This table exhibits at a glance a very important saving to the Insurer, fully adequate
to insure at once one-third more principal sum than can be secured for the same Pre-
mium in Offices sharing Profits to be realised, and in which it should be borne in mind,
that should the life drop prematurely, no Bonus would have accrued ; consequently, the
whole extra Premiums charged above the Britannia Company s rate would have been
sacrificed, without yielding any commensurate advantage to the Insurer,
The Britannia Company prefer giving a direct and immediate advantage to the
public by a fair reduction of rates, rather than inviting those to become partners who can
have neither leisure nor inclination to understand or investigate their own rights. These
advantages may be observed in the following Scale, where the absolute saving to insurers
in the Britannia Company is made to appear, supposing the sum to be insured One Thou-
sand Pounds at any of the following ages :-»
