LIC pays Agents; Pvt pay Banks!

In 2008-09, private insurers forked out Rs 205.42 crore as
commission for banassurance, while the payout by LIC for this
distribution model was only Rs 0.12 crore.
The commission payout by private insurers for business written
through bancassurance in 2007-08 was Rs 202.22 crore as against Rs
0.16 crore by LIC. The insurance sector was thrown open for private
participation in 2000.
LIC continues to heavily bet on its individual agents (not corporate
agency) for selling its products. The life insurance major’s
