IF AMFAM’S COMMERCIAL CUT-BACK AFFECTS YOU, MAYBE YOU SHOULD TAKE A LOOK AT THIS! With the cessation of certain commercial lines recently announced by AmFam, many agents are looking at a not-so-well known offering in their agent contracts called “Partial Assignments.” Some have described Partial Assignments as ‘giving back to the company a certain minimum number of policies in exchange for locking in and being paid immediate termination benefits on those policies at their current renewal value “as if this agreement had terminated at the time of the reassignment.”In other words, there is probably a way to get paid contract value for your soon-to-disappear commercial policies and still continue with the rest of your agency!

Progressive halts new home insurance policies in Texas and some Midwestern states: Information such as this is a sure indication that agents might have a hard time keeping their customers if more insurance companies stop selling in certain states. This article mentions that mid-western states such as Illinois, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska and Wisconsin could be next on the chopping block. Reason given: Insurance companies want to insure in states where the weather risk is lower. 8/18/2024
