The life insurance law of Xova Scotia is found in E.S.N.S. 1900, c. 112, and is similar to the Imperial Married Woman's Property Act, 1870. It protects insurance for husband, wife, and children. Creditors are, however, entitled to recover premiums paid in fraud of them. A wife may insure her own life or that of her husband. Insurance by a man or woman for the benefit of wife, husband, and children, creates a trust, and is protected against creditors except so far as premiums are paid in fraud of creditors on a policy similarly effected. There are no provisions for apportionment and revocation. In case the wife is validly divorced for cause, or is guilty and her guilt is not condoned, she loses her interest in Ithe insurance moneys, which go to the children, and if no children, then to the husband. NOVA SCOTIA STATUTE. (R.S.KS. 1900, c. 112.) INSURANCE BY OK FOR MARRIED WOMEN. 20. A married woman may effect a policy of insurance upon her own life or the life of her husband for her separate use; and the same and benefit thereof shall enure accordingly. 1898, c. 22, s. 11. 21. (1) A policy of insurance effected, (a) By any man on his own life, and expressed to be for the benefit of his wife, or of his children, or of his wife and children, or any of them; or, (b) By any woman on her own life, and expressed to be for the benefit of her husband, or of her children, or of her husband and children, or any of them, shall create a trust in favour of the objects therein named, and the moneys payable under any such policy shall not, so long as any object of the trust remains unperformed, form part of the estate of the insured, or be subject to his or her debts.

From the back cover: In this penetrating analysis, Professor Mathewson probes four pertinent questions relating to markets for life insurance. He explains the observed variability in the price of alternative life insurance policies by developing a model of consumer choice in life insurance and tests the implications of this model for price levels and price variability. He tests for the presence of natural monopoly elements in the industry, explaining the diversity in the size of life insurance firms and the potential economic advantage of large firms over small. He develops a theory of the role of agents to determine whether there is excessive sales effort in the marketing of insurance. Finally, he contends that there is scope for an expanded government policy on life insurance aside from solvency regulation, and advocates a publicly subsidized information policy to aid consumers in their decisions.
