THE SCOTTISH PROVIDENT INSTITUTION combines the advantage of Participation
in the whole Profits with moderate Premiums.
The premiums are as low as those of the non-participating scale of the
proprietary companies. They admit of being so not only with safety, but
with ample reversion of profits to the policy-holders, being free from the
burden of payment of dividend to shareholders.
At the first division of surplus in the present year, bonus additions were
made to policies which had come within the participating class, varying
from 20 to 54 per cent. on their amount.
In all points of practice--as in the provision for the indefeasibility of
policies, facility of licence for travelling or residence abroad, and of
obtaining advances on the value of the policies--the regulations of the
Society, as well as the administration, are as liberal as is consistent
with right principle.
Policies now issued free of stamp duty.
Copies of the last annual report, containing full explanations of the
principles, may be had on application to the Head Office in Edinburgh; of
the Society's Provincial Agent: or of the Resident Secretary, London
Branch.
JAMES WATSON, Manager.
GEORGE GRANT, Resident Secretary.
London Branch, 12. Moorgate Street.
The London Branch will be removed on 25th March to the Society's New
Premises, 66. Gracechurch Street, corner of Fenchurch Street, City.
