Payment of this Contingent (Profit) Commission may depend on a combination of growth, profitability (loss ratio), volume, retention and increased services that we provide on behalf of the Insurer. Contingent (profit) Commission is not guaranteed. For detailed information on Contingent Commission, please go to the individual company’s website.
