Target Premium Policy - Add Edit Duplicate Delete

A Target Premium policy can be a universal life or other life policy that pays a base commission on “target premium” as determined by the carrier.  A lower commission is usually paid on the “excess” premium above the target amount.  Commissions can be advanced on these type plans during first year, renewals, or both.
