Page "Insurance" Paragraph 203
from
Wikipedia
A tied agent, working exclusively with one insurer, represents the insurance company from whom the policyholder buys ( while a free agent sales policies of various insurance companies ).
Just as there is a potential conflict of interest with a broker, an agent has a different type of conflict.
Because agents work directly for the insurance company, if there is a claim the agent may advise the client to the benefit of the insurance company.
