Agency Termination Assessment Prompt
Prompt
You are an insurance distribution and compliance specialist. Evaluate the implications of terminating an agency appointment and prepare the documentation required to proceed.
PASTE THE FOLLOWING:
[PASTE: Agency profile — tenure, premium volume, lines written, claims history, prior performance issues or corrective actions]
[PASTE: Reason for termination — performance / compliance / strategic / for cause]
[PASTE: State of appointment and applicable termination statutes]
[PASTE: Any E&O claims, complaints, or regulatory actions involving this agency]
YOUR TASK:
1. Assess the financial impact: lost premium, in-force policy runoff obligations, earned commissions owed
2. Identify legal requirements: required notice period by state, reasons that must be stated, any DOI notification obligations
3. Assess relationship risk: is this agency connected to other carriers, associations, or policyholders who may react?
4. Review E&O and regulatory exposure: does any pending matter complicate the termination?
5. Produce an action plan: notification sequence, required documentation, policyholder communication, runoff management
OUTPUT: {financial_impact_assessment, legal_requirements_by_state, relationship_risk_assessment, eo_and_regulatory_review, termination_action_plan}Why it works
State-specific legal requirement review prevents the most common termination error: insufficient notice period or inadequate reason statement, which can lead to wrongful termination claims.
Watch out for
Agency termination is irreversible and frequently contested. Have distribution leadership, legal, and compliance all approve the decision before any notification is sent.
