There are, of course, brokers who write insurance policies, - that is, are authorized by the company to accept risks and write and issue the policies. They are usually regarded as the company's agents, but sometimes even they may be regarded as partly the company's agents and partly the agents of the insured. Some policies contain special provisions as to who are to be regarded as the company's agents and by whose acts and representations the company is to be bound.
