PROvISIONS RELATING TO THE PREPARATION OF ABSTRACTS OF ACTuARY’S REPORTS

Abstracts shall be so arranged that the numbers and letters of the
items correspond with those of the items of Part II of the Schedule.
Where any table of mortality or sickness used in a valuation is not a
published table, then for the purpose of complying with item (3) of Part II of this Schedule, specimen policy values shall be given at the rate of interest employed in the valuation in respect of whole life insurance policies effected at the respective ages of 20, 30, 40 and 50, and having been in force respectively for five years, ten years and upwards at intervals of ten years; and similar specimen policy values shall be given in respect of endowment insurance policies effected at the respective ages of 20, 30 and 40 for endowment terms of twenty and thirty years, and in the case of policies involving continuous disability benefits, specimens of the valuation factors must be given. Provided that, where the specimen policy values or valuation factors required by this Schedule to be given are the same as those given in any abstract prepared under Part II of this Schedule previously submitted by the company to the Central Bank, it shall be sufficient in any abstract subsequently submitted to refer to the specimens so given in such manner as to enable the Bank to ascertain the required information.
In showing the proportion which that part of the annual premiums
reserved as a provision for future expenses and profits bears to the total of the annual premiums, in accordance with the requirements of item (4) of Part II of this Schedule, no credit is to be taken for any adjustments made in order to secure that no policy is treated as an asset.
(1) The average rate of interest earned in any year by the assets
constituting a statutory fund shall, for the purposes of item (5) of Part II of this
Schedule, be calculated by dividing the interest of the year by the mean fund of
