Reference committees and the Consolidated insurance outlook
The article argues for setting up regional reference boards to aid insurance companies. It cites Consolidated Assurance Company already forming such committees in Liverpool, Manchester, and Birmingham and plans to expand. It details actuarial valuation up to Sept 30 1864 showing 2596 policies, assets 455,595 pounds, liabilities 409,668 pounds, net assets 45,926 pounds, and notes a favorable surplus versus 1861.
