The mathematical provisions established by life assurance and capitalisation companies are calculated by taking into account, in determining the commitment of the policyholder or subscriber, the part of the premiums to be paid by the interested party representing the costs of acquiring the contract, where these costs have been charged as a deductible expense by the company before the end of the financial year in which the provision is established.
However, for each life insurance or capitalisation contract, the mathematical reserve may not be more than 5% less than the mathematical reserve that would be calculated without taking into account the portion of premiums mentioned in the previous paragraph.
Where necessary, a decree will lay down the conditions for the application of this article.
