Celebrating Excellence in Fraternal Service
Each year, NAFIC recognizes professionals whose performance, service, leadership, and commitment strengthen the fraternal financial profession.
Recognition Built Around Service and Impact
NAFIC awards celebrate more than production. They recognize professionals who serve members well, build lasting relationships, demonstrate leadership, and advance the values of fraternalism.
Production Awards
Production Awards recognize NAFIC members for their results in serving clients through qualifying life insurance and annuity business during the award year. Award levels are determined using first-year commissions reported by participating member societies. First-year commissions provide a consistent measurement for comparing qualifying business across different products and organizations.
What are first-year commissions? First-year commissions are the commissions associated with qualifying new business during its first year. They are used to determine award eligibility and achievement level. The awards recognize documented production results and do not disclose an individual's compensation.
