This commission percentage is paid annually or semi-annually for both new business and renewals.
Should there be an increase in the commission schedule we receive from your insurer, or any other material change that affects compensation arrangements, we will notify you.
The insurers with an asterisk (*) noted above recognize our efforts through a Contingent (Profit) Commission contract.
