2 .
In practice ,
however ,
the premium is not always paid when the policy is underwritten ;
for insurances are frequently effected by brokers ,
and open accounts are kept between them and the underwriters ,
in which they make themselves debtors for all premiums ;,
and sometimes notes or bills are given for the amount of the premium .
3 .
The French writers ,
when they speak of the consideration given for maritime loans ,
employ a variety of words in order to distinguish it according to the nature of the case .
Thus ,
they call it interest when it is stipulated to be paid by the month or at other stated periods .
It is a premium ,
when a gross sum is to be paid at the end of a voyage ,
and here the risk is the principal object which they have in view .
When the sum is a percentage on the money lent ,
they denominate it exchange ,
considering it in the light of money lent in one place to be returned in another ,
with a difference in amount between the sum borrowed and that which is paid ,
arising from the difference of time and place .
When they intend to combine these various shades into one general denomination ,
they make use of the term maritime profit ,
to convey their meaning .
