Broker affiliation and compensation.
To our customers,
Thank you for your business.
We're a privately owned insurance brokerage with no financial affiliation to any individual insurance company.
The brokerage is compensated in two ways:
For the underwriting and administration work, efforts and expenses borne by us, a base commission of 9-20% of the premium is paid by the insurance company.
A contingent commission may also be paid to DirectRate.ca if an insurance company represented by us achieves certain underwriting results.
The methodology for calculating the payment varies by insurance company but, in general, the contingent commission, if paid, ranges from 0.25% to 2.2% of the premium that Direct Rate Insurance Services Inc. produces for that insurance company.
We represent the following insurers:
