NEW YORK LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
100th Annual Statement to its Policyholders
THE company will be one hundred years old on April 12,
1945. Since beginning business in 1845, it has paid to
policyholders and beneficiaries over $6,000,000,000. As it
completes its first century, the Company baa in force its
greatest amount of life insurance.
Our centennial, while significant in the history of the Com
pany, comes at an especially significant time in the history of
the nation. The war, with the additional duties and respon
sibilities it imposes upon all of us, has been a primary influ
ence affecting the Company as an institution and also the
officers, agents and employees individually. More than 1,970
members of the New York Life organization are now serving
in the armed forces. Twenty-two have already lost their lives
in the service of their country
Although there have been five wars during the 100 years
since 1845, the past century has been a period of great devel
opment for the country. Through all those years, the New
York Life has played its part in the nation's social and eco
nomic growth. A the Company emerges from Its first cen
tury, it reaffirms its faith in the stability ol our fundamental
American institutions.
Foremost of these institutions Is the family. With It goes
the family's freedom to participate in the nation's progress
towards a better civilization, and the right to protect the
fruits of hard work and perseverance. In America and Canada,
where we live, this freedom to participate, and the right to
protect, is assured by our representative form of government.
It has enabled us to attain our present high standards of
living and family security. But while our form of government
can assure this freedom of opportunity, it is the responsibility
of the individual family to avail itself of that opportunity by
constant effort and savings. Freedom of opportunity and in
dividual effort must be inseparable if we wish to maintain
security and insure progress. Under the circumstances, it is
natural that life insurance as an institution should have had
such a remarkable development and should have become so
Increasingly important during the past one hundred years.
Through life insurance, New York Life policyholders erect
the fortifications of security for their families and for them
selves. But not only do the funds of this Company improve
and protect the financial position of the individual family;
they are at the same time acting in the service of the country
as a whole. Before life insurance funds go back from the
Company to policyholders or beneficiaries in accordance with
the terms of the policy contracts, those funds become avail
able for employment in the economic life of the people in the
form of investments or loans. In normal years they help
finance the pursuits of peace. In war years they help in win
ning the war. Indeed, over 54 per cent of all the Company's
assets are now invested in United States Government securi
ties helping to finance the war.
, The growth and development of the Company during the
past half-century are illustrated by these interesting com
parisons: Payments to Policy- 1894 1919 1944

$162,011,770 $961,022,120 $3,570,738,940
Throughout the years, the Company has recognized that the
confidence of its policyholders must be based on a strong .
foundation of security. Prior to 1899 the Company assumed
that it would earn in excess of 4 per cent on highest grade
investments and it had been using a 4 per cent interest factor
for life insurance premium calculations. However, in 1899, in
view of decreased investment yields, the Company adopted a
S per cent rate for new policies. This change added to an
important element of safety behind the Company's future
contracts. During the past year, because of the still lower
yields which now prevail, the Company has again strengthened
its reserve basis by changing its interest rate assumption for
new policies from 3 per cent to Vx per cent.
As we come to the end of our first century, we look back on
a long life of service to the greatest of American institutions,'
the family. And as we enter our second century, we look for
ward to the opportunity in the years to come of even greater
service to the family and the nation.
