The Easy Way To Get Your Insurance

Back to articles list

Who's who in insurance?

If you are looking for auto insurance, either for the first time or because your policy has come up for renewal, you might wonder whether you want to go with an auto insurance broker or an auto insurance agent. Will one get you a better price over another? What’s the difference between the two? If you aren’t familiar with the insurance industry and its lingo, you’ll find it is a good idea to connect with both before purchasing your policy. While there are many similarities between the two, there are some notable differences.

Doesn’t a car insurance broker do the same thing as a car insurance agent?

Basically, yes. Both are licensed insurance representatives who can advise you on and sell you a policy. They essentially do the same thing but with one slight difference:

• Insurance agents represent one company. From this company, an insurance agent can sell you a policy.
• Insurance brokers represent more than one insurance company. How many will vary by brokerage, but an insurance broker can sell you a policy from any of the insurance companies they represent.

Whether you go with an insurance agent or broker, when you find the one you want to work with and buy insurance from, this person will do the following:

• explain in detail what is covered by your car insurance policy, the policy’s limitations and exclusions, and what this means to you;
• go over with you available optional coverages (and whether or not you need them), deductibles (if applicable), and the cost of your policy;
• annually review your policy with you to see if what worked for you last year is still the best for you this year;
• let you know of any new insurance products or features that might be of benefit to you; and
• answer all of your insurance questions and provide guidance if the need to submit a claim arises.
