The Prudential Insurance Company of America received a thorough three year review by the New Jersey Department of Banking and Insurance. Forty examiners at the Home Office plus 430 in field work documented assets rising from 200 million to 291 million and insurance in force up to 2.22 billion. Mortgage lending near 73 million, 20 million policy loans, and 160 million in bonds were verified as in hand or properly deposited. The report commended management and confirmed reserve adequacy, policy accuracy, and overall soundness of the corporation.
President Forrest F. Dryden praised the examiners tests for the New Jersey Insurance Department and their thorough conclusion. The Company’s managers say the improved economy does not diminish general accuracy of work, and policyholders should share in the gratification.
