What to know about Insurance brokers
An insurance broker arranges coverage between you and an insurance company. The distinction that matters most when you pick up the phone is who the person across the table represents. The Financial Consumer Agency of Canada describes a broker as a person or company who sells the products of several insurance companies, while an agent sells for one insurer. Neither arrangement is better in the abstract: a broker can take your details to more than one market, an agent knows one company's products in depth, and in both cases the licence, not the job title on the business card, is what tells you what that person is allowed to sell.
