When we talk about life insurance agents, we of course mean state insurance department licensed life insurance agents. However, it does not mean we are referring to strictly life. Our analysis shows that roughly 22% of life insurance agents sell annuities to their clients. About 18% of total licensed life insurance agents sell variable annuities or variable life, which requires them also having a series 6, 7, or 63, securities (NASD) license. Also of the total life insurance agents nationwide, approximately 97% have also health and accident, or sometimes called accident and disability licensing. Finally, depending upon the state, 25% to 29% of licensed life insurance agents hold a property/casualty license, in some states it is known as a fire and casualty license. There are some of these casualty agents that rarely sell life insurance. Also some "wire-house" stock brokers hold a life insurance agent license, but stick to selling stocks, mutual funds, and non-insurance related plans.
