Contingent Commissions
In order for Wiesner Insurance to maintain strong relationships with quality insurers, we work with each to provide the type of business they desire. The automobile and property insurers denoted below recognize our efforts through a Contingent Commission contract. Payment of this Contingent Commission depends on a combination of growth, profitability (loss ratio), volume, retention and increased services that we provide on behalf of the Insurer. It is based on our entire portfolio of business with that insurer and not on individual policies. Contingent Commission is not guaranteed.
