PassageOne

Lifeassurancehasexisted,inoneformoranother,forthousandsofyears.WhenRomansoldierswerepaid,partoftheirearningswentintoafundontheirbehalf.Iftheywereinbattlethenthismoneywasgiventotheirfamilies.Or,iftheywereretiredfromthearmy,theyweregiventhismoneytohelpthemstartanewcareer.

Inthedayswhenpiratesusedtoattackshipsatsea,manyseacaptainsusedtoclubtogetherbyputtingmoneyintoafund.Thenwhenoneofthesecaptainswasunluckyenoughtogetcaptured,moneyfromthefundwasusedtopayhisransomandsogetthemreleasedassoonaspossible.Gradually,overthecenturies,thebasicprinciplesoflifeassuranceweregrowing.

Oneveryimportantideaorprinciplethatbegantodevelopwasthat—iflifeassurancewastoworkwell—afundofmoneywasneeded.Peoplewhowantedtohaveassurancewouldjoinacluborsocietyandpaymoneyregularlyintothesociety’sfundeachyear.

Inthisway,thefundwouldgraduallygrow,andifoneofthesociety’smembersdiddiethereshouldbeenoughinthefundtobeabletopayouttheamountassured.Theproblemthatremainedwasthis:

howmuchshouldeachpersonputintothefund?

ThisimportantquestionwassolvedbyamathematicsteacherwhoworkedinLondontwohundredyearsago.HewasJamesDodson.Herealizedthattheamounteachpersonshouldpayintothefundrestedontheprincipleofprobability.Thatis—howprobableorlikelywasitthatthepersonmightdie?

Usinghismathematics,JamesDodsoncalculatedtheprobabilityofdeathforeachindividualwhowantedlifeassurance.Today,wesaythatweareworkingoutaperson’slifeexpectancy—howlongthepersoncanexpectorhopetolive.

Muchwilldependontheageoftheperson,howhealthyheorsheis,andhowriskythejobheorshedoes.JamesDodsonrealizedthatthemorelikelyapersonwastodie,thefeweryearsheorshewouldbeexpectedtopayintothefundand,therefore,themoreheorsheshouldpayeachyear.Withthisinformation,JamesDodsoncouldcalculatemathematicallythefixedamountthateachpersonshouldpayeachyear,inordertobeassuredthatanagreedsumofmoneywouldbegiventohisorherfamilywhenheorshedied.Thisfixedamountofmoneyisknownasalevelpremium—becauseitremainsatthesamelevelforaslongasheorshekeepsupthepolicy.
