Commission Tracking – Insurance agencies often deal with commissions from various policies. Bookkeeping needs to accurately track these commissions, including split commissions between agents and agencies.
Premiums and Claims – Managing premiums collected and claims processed requires precise tracking and reconciliation. Unlike standard retail transactions, premiums may be collected over time or in installments, and claims processing involves multiple financial transactions
Regulatory Compliance – Insurance agencies must adhere to specific regulatory requirements, such as reporting to state insurance departments and maintaining compliance with insurance laws. This adds complexity to bookkeeping practices compared to businesses in less regulated industries.
