Insurance

Agent

Insurance is a financial product that is sold through two types of agents: independent agents and exclusive agents. Independent agents work for themselves and represent multiple insurance companies. They are paid based on commission. On the other hand, exclusive agents only represent one insurance company and are either salaried or work on commission. These types of agents are also known as captive agents. Insurance companies that use exclusive agents are referred to as direct writers.
