Insurance Agent — Suitability & Principal-Agent Conflict

Industry front door for principal-agent. Adds domain triggers, example, packs. Parent Process unchanged. Not legal advice.

Activate when: recommending among products with different commissions; captive-carrier pressure vs client fit; annuity/life with best-interest duties; disclosing agent capacity. Do NOT activate when: servicing only / no recommendation.

Why this variant

The parent principal-agent analyzes misaligned incentives between an agent and the principal they serve. An insurance producer is paid by carriers but advises clients — a structural conflict. Suitability/best-interest rules exist to resolve it: recommend on client fit, disclose the conflict, don't let commission drive the product.

Domain inputs → the analysis

  • Name the conflict: higher-commission product vs best-fit coverage; captive limits vs client need; churning incentive on replacements.
  • Duty: document the recommendation rests on the client's needs/finances (suitability/best-interest), not your payout.
  • Disclose capacity (agent of the carrier vs broker) and material conflicts; where the best fit isn't in your appointments, say so.

Worked example

Two annuities fit; one pays you 2× commission. → Principal-agent view: recommending the higher-commission one without a client-benefit basis is a suitability + best-interest breach. Document why the chosen product is best for the client, or recommend the better-fit lower-commission one.

Packs

  • Solo agent: conflict-disclosure + suitability-basis template.
  • Agency: best-interest review on annuity/life sales; replacement scrutiny.

Red flags

  • Product chosen for commission, rationalized after.
  • Capacity (agent vs broker) undisclosed.
  • Replacement/churning for a new commission.

Verification

  • Conflicts named (commission/captive/replacement)
  • Recommendation documented on client-fit basis
  • Capacity + material conflicts disclosed
  • Better-fit option outside appointments acknowledged where relevant
