How Much Commission Insurance Agent Makes?

Let us assume that the term of the plan is 20 yrs, Product-Endowment Plan and Yearly Premium say is Rs 1,00,000 and one will realise that agent gets a commission of Rs 1.85 Lakh spread over 20 Years.

This is the reason that an agent will ask you to go for longer duration as in reality he will not let you know that his commission is the highest when you go with him for the longest period.

Thus we always suggest our clients to go for term insurance plan as it is best as compared to investment linked insurance.
