Considerations in a Mutual Life Insurance Company Conversion

  • Chapter
Book cover Financial Management of Life Insurance Companies

Abstract

This chapter focuses on the issues involved in a conversion of a life insurance company from mutual to stock form. This is a subject to which I have given a great deal of thought and attention in recent years, including service as Chairman of the Society of Actuaries Task Force on Mutual Life Insurance Company Conversions and as a member of the LICONY (Life Insurance Council of New York) group that helped to design New York State’s demutualization law. I am particularly pleased to see this work bear fruit for my own company which successfully implemented mutual-to-stock conversion during 1992.
