Competition
Competitive Landscape for Dimensional Fund Advisors, Inc.
Demand is related to consumer income and commercial business activity. When the economy grows, so does the demand for personal and business insurance. When the economy contracts, as it did in the late 2000s, demand for insurance falls. The profitability of individual agencies depends on effective marketing, client referrals, and customer service. Large agencies have advantages in name recognition, connections with more insurers, and the ability to craft more complex insurance packages. Although small agencies formerly competed by specializing in a specific product line, they are increasingly diversifying to build business. Average annual revenue per employee is around $200,000.
