LIFE INSURANCE DIVIDENDS OF THE PURELY MUTUAL SORT BY THE CONNECTICUT MUTUAL MEASURE Each Life Insurance Premium provides for: 3 Elements THE RESERVE THE DEATH LOSSES MANAGEMENT EXPENSES Surplus to Policy-holders is derived from Three Legitimate Sources. 1st Source Surplus Interest, or the difference between the interest earned and that assumed to be earned on the reserve. 2d Source-Saving in death losses, or the difference between the actual losses and those provided for in the premium. 3d Source Saving in expenses, or the difference between the actual expenses and the expenses provided for in the premium. The surplus earned and divided (called dividends), depends upon careful, and economical management and NOT ON THE VOLUME OF NEW RISKS secured. NEW BUSINESS in life insurance does not of itself increase the divi dends to policy-holders. It means only the assumption of new risks on lives and increased liabilities to be provided for by the premiums charged for same. The Company that pays the largest commissions to agents and salaries to officers out of the premiums they secure, will have the greatest volume of new risks on lives, but the smallest dividends for the policy-holders.
