The present rate of Interest is Jive per cent , per annum , and this rate will continue to be paid so long as the Assurance department finds the same safe and profitable employment for money . - Interest payable half-yearly in January and July . Money intended for Investment is received daily between the hours of 10 and 4 o ' clock , at the Offices of the Association . immediate Annuities granted , and the business of Life Assurance in all its branches , transacted , oft . highly advantageous terms .
