Owed to the carrier from the day it is invoiced

Premiums Payable And Sweeps

The agency owes the carrier transacted premium net of commission whether or not the insured ever pays, so the brokerage app posts that liability when the premium is billed, not when it is collected, and the trust ratio reads it from the ledger. The premiums payable register carries each amount owed with the gross premium, the levies collected with it and the commission retained, and ages it against that carrier's account current — days after the invoice, days after the month end, or a fixed day of the following month — never against the client's payment term. The gap between the two is the funding the agency carries itself, and the ageing is where it shows. The agency's own commission leaves the trust only through a sweep a second trust manager approves.
