Description: This article from the Digest of Informal Discussion, Transactions of Society of Actuaries 1955 Volume 7, Number 17, identifies the participants and summarizes their comments. The discussion topics include: comparison of the new Canadian and U.S. convention blank annual statements whether there are any differences significant enough to cause undesirable lack of uniformity difficulties encountered in compiling the Canadian statement by line of business and geographic subdivision and problems which may be anticipated in the preparation of annual statements by reason of Regulation No. 33 of the New York Insurance Department.
