dc.description.abstract | It appears that in public opinion British law on
the subject is not in a satisfactory state, and that no provision exists
for the guidance of reasonable and prudent men in their dealings
with Life Assurance Companies in the United Kingdom. Under
these circumstances, one is naturally led to inquire whether the laws
of other countries provide for the want which is thus felt in our own
country.
Since writing my former paper, I have obtained a full copy of the
laws of the States of New York and Massachusetts, and I now beg
to state, for the information of this Society, how those laws deal with
the solvency or insolvency of an Assurance Company; on which
question, according to the Echo, we must not look to the English
Court of Chancery for aid. | en |
