Mutual Insurance Companies
Companies with no capital stock, and owned by policyholders. The earnings of the company over and above the payments of the losses, operating expenses and reserves are the property of the policyholders. There are two types of mutual insurance companies. A nonassessable mutual charges a fixed premium and the policyholders cannot be assessed further. Legal reserves and surplus are maintained to provide payment of all claims. Assessable mutuals are companies that charge an initial fixed premium and, if that isn't sufficient, might assess policyholders to meet losses in excess of the premiums that have been charged.
Do you have old policies lying about? Perhaps it's a term or whole of life insurance, pension, endowment, bond or an annuity policy. Or do you receive statements for a policy which you are unsure about? Why not use Policy Detective to find the answers.
Which company now looks after your policy? Who can you contact about your policy? What do all those words and phrases on my policy document actually mean?
Policy Detective is a UK company for UK customers. We help you to track-down the Administrators for policies which you or your loved ones may have in the bureau or the attic. You never know how much money there could be in that old policy. It's not easy to find this information, as companies through time are taken-over, merge with other companies and even change their names. We can help you find the company which now deals with your policy. Some companies even allow us to check the status of your policy.
