Friendly Societies

Globe Insurance Company.—Early in the year 1799 a plan was laid before Mr. Pitt for forming a Chartered Insurance Office, for granting Insurance against Fire, and for Insurance of Lives; for buying and selling Annuities, and for receiving deposits from Friendly Societies, and the Industrial Classes: to be called the Globe or General Insurance Office. It was understood that the plan received that Minister's approval, and a Bill was introduced to Parliament embodying these objects. The measure encountered some opposition. In the first place, the Bank of England objected to the Deposit branch, and the clauses relating thereto were accordingly struck out. Then it was opposed by several of the Insurance Offices; but the Bill finally passed through both Houses, and received the Royal Assent.

Our earlier paper ‘The money supply, economic management and the gilt-edged market’ (J.I.A.96, 1) introduced the money supply as being ‘of importance to investment, in general because of possible changes in the economic management in the United Kingdom, and in particular because of the possible implications for the gilt-edged market’. To a large extent these changes have come about; the Authorities are now placing greater emphasis than in 1969 on controlling the money supply and support for the gilt-edged market was withdrawn when the Bank of England published Competition and Credit Control in May 1971.2. The present paper is more fundamental for investment. The introduction to the earlier paper referred to our main research project into the uses of the financial statistics which were first published in 1962 as a result of the Radcliffe Committee Report. Changes in the management of the economy and the gilt-edged market were side issues, however important; the present paper describes some of the interim conclusions of the main project which is still continuing.
