New York Life agents who are NAIFA members averaged $90,300 in first-year commissions while non-members averaged $55,340, according to a company study of 2010 production figures for its council-level agents.
The data confirm earlier studies that have shown NAIFA members to be more productive than their non-member peers.
The New York Life study also found that council-level NAIFA members produced 52 percent more premium than non-NAIFA members.
