There Is no branch of commercial enterprise in New ZeaUnd which presents such favourable opening fer the investment of capital as that of JPire ana Marine Insurance. The success which has attended the establishment of the "New Zealand" and the "South' British" Companies is a proof of this. ~ . The business of, Fire and Marine Insurance Is so rapidly increasinc that there is ample room for another company in this colony. Largely-increased facilities for covering this class of risks are imperatively r« quired, and the. National Insurance Company is founded to supply this want. this company is not started in opposition to any of' the other New Zealand Companies, but is intended to co-operate with them in fostering the Trade and Commerce of the colony, and concentrating in the country the large capital which is annually drafted out of it toy foreign insurance companies. . In order to make this a purely colonial, company, and to induce a large amount of business through the influence of its shareholders, it is proposed to distri bute the shares over the whole colony, and in their allotment to keep in view tho ability of, shareholders to influence business to the company. , . *, ■ 40,000 Shares will be reserved for Otago and South land, and the.,remainder allotted to' the "Northern provinces. ■ , " ■ ,-■ ~ •■ The operations of the Company will be conducted on'sound • principles, arid extreme caution will be exercised in the selection of risks.
