Florida Statutes, Rules, and Regulations Common to All Lines
Over twelve months a Florida life agent's premium writings on the agent's own family and business associates come to more than the agent's writings on the general public. What is the consequence under the life agent controlled business rule?
Answer and explanation
Answer: D. Section 626.784(3) states the rule for life agents as a comparison over a 12-month period: controlled business premium writings may not exceed writings on life contracts sold to the general public, and exceeding that exposes the licence to denial, non-renewal, or revocation. The 50 percent commission figure belongs to 626.730, which governs general lines agents, not life agents. Suitability of each sale does not cure the comparison, and the statute prescribes no commission refund.Source: Fla. Stat. § 626.784 — 626.784(3)-(4), Controlled business
