Insurance undertakings are authorised to participate directly or indirectly, in particular by collecting premiums or contributions, by constituting capital payable in the event of death, or by constituting and paying pensions or life annuities, in any transaction the object of which is the acquisition or enjoyment of rights in the event of death, in which a link is established between the revaluation of premiums and that of previously acquired rights in the event of death, and whose assets and rights are isolated from those of other insured persons and subject to the conditions set out in this chapter.
These operations constitute commitments the performance of which depends on the duration of human life within the meaning of article L. 310-1.
