There is regulatory accountablity in the agent/broker profession. Although a Risk Manager, I am licensed mult-lines in Florida and non-resident in 6 other states. Up to now, it is regulated onto the agent individually and only state by state as the individual is licensed. Every state has a hot-line to the commissioner for consumer complaints. Just last year Florida has begun to require the agency/brokerage to be licensed as well. This is a step in the right direction, but until there is true national accountability, regulation is there but very unorganized for national concerns. I am also torn on Federal Regulation of agents/brokers when all insurance is regulated, rated and filed by state.
I have never personally experienced being at odds with the broker because their compensation is commission or contigency based. I just can't relate to that. Maybe because I just don't feel threatened by it. I appreciate your comments as they come from your experience.
