Should a retail commercial insurance broker work with a E &S Wholesale broker that also has its own Retail Brokerage operation?
 
This mainly pertains to commercial insurance. For example, A roofing contractor that I would insure through a wholesale broker. This wholesaler also has a retail insurance brokerage.

Also, I would add that this wholesaler has a clause in their appointment agreement that states.

Regardless of who owns the account. The policy holder ultimately decides who services the account.

So, if the roofing contractor decides they would like to work exclusively with this wholesale broker they can do so through their retail agency.
 
What concerns you about this? Your E&S Wholesaler will steal your clients away from you?
Caveat, not an agent.

What is an E&S wholesaler?

Conceptually, how does it relate to an FMO in the Medicare Supplement or Medicare Advantage world?

Thanks.
