Dividend Illustration
Picture of future dividends that the insurance company expects to be allocated to a specific block of policies. The accuracy of this picture depends on the actual future mortality, investment, and expense experience being the same as that of the projected dividends. One way to judge the validity of the projected dividends is to ascertain the dividends that the company has actually paid out in the past and the dividends that it is currently paying out. Although this is not a guarantee of future payments, it can be a strong indication of future payouts.
