Brokerage

Insurance brokers are typically the professionals who represent the brokerage in this process.
Insuranceopedia Explains Brokerage
Companies frequently use brokerage services because navigating the insurance landscape to find the best deals on various policies can be time-consuming, and policies are often complex. Hiring a brokerage can therefore be an efficient choice.
While brokerages do charge fees for their services, these fees are often minimal compared to the potential financial loss a company could face if it were to purchase an inadequate policy or fail to secure proper coverage.
