Ownership Path

Financial Services:
Build a Broader Practice

Farmers agency owners have the opportunity to expand beyond property and casualty insurance into financial services — building a more comprehensive practice that serves clients across multiple needs.

The Opportunity

More Than Insurance

Farmers agency owners who obtain the appropriate securities licensing can offer financial services products to their clients — expanding the scope of their practice and the value they deliver.

This path is well-suited for candidates who are interested in building a comprehensive financial services practice — not just selling insurance policies — and who are willing to pursue the additional licensing required.

What's Involved

What the Financial Services Path Requires

Additional Licensing

Product Access

Training & Development
