The subject of Group Life Insurance schemes has been quite recently discussed by the Society (J.S.S. Vol. III. No. 3) and no useful purpose can be served by a repetition of remarks regarding such schemes.

However, there are two points which deserve further consideration. The first of these relates to what might be termed underwriting rules—or, in other words, regulations to which every contract must conform. Each individual contract should be written, so far as possible, on such a basis as will preclude the writing of unsatisfactory business and in this connection such points as the number of lives to be covered, maximum and minimum amounts of insurance, etc., fall to be considered.
