Facing new commission regulations from the IRDAI, insurance brokers, including Quickinsure, are tweaking their business approaches. This pivot might cause a staggering loss of over 100,000 jobs as the industry reduces reliance on fixed sales teams. Brokers are expected to embrace more flexible cost structures and optimize sales output. Unfortunately, smaller brokers lack the established client base needed to weather these changes, risking their operational sustainability.
