There is no branch of commercial enterprise in'Ne'w Zealand which, presents such a favorable opening, for the:' investment of Capital as that of Fire and Marine Insurance. •The success -which has the establishment of the New , Zealand r ( and > South British Companies is a proof of this. The business of Fire and Marine Insurance is so rapidlydncreasing that there; is -ample room for, another. company in this Colony. Largely increased facilities' for cavering this class of .risk., are imperatively, reg aired, and the National; 'lnsurance .Company is founded to supply this T^ant. ' . '"' r ''^ This Company is not started ' in- opposition to any of the bther 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 1 , is 1 anntialiy drafted out of it by f preign Insurance Companies. In order to 'make this a purely Colonial Comp^nyjand tlv eiisUre a large amount of business 'through the influence of its snareholders, it is proposed to'distributethe shares over ,the ; whole ,Colpny,,and,.in. their allotment, to keep in view the ability of shareholders: tbinfluebce business tqthe Company. 60, 000 shares will be reservedfor the northern ProvinceSi V ' .
