The Blue Ribbon Consultant is a certification system for non-life insurance solicitors who demonstrate outstanding sales performance and contract management capabilities. This program has been in operation since 2011. It not only assesses sales figures but also evaluates contract retention and consumer protection to select the most outstanding solicitors.

As a basic eligibility criterion, the association considered planners and individual agencies who have been named Excellent Certified Planners for five consecutive years. Comprehensive evaluations were conducted based on key performance indicators such as maintenance rates of contracts at the 13th and 25th month, as well as the number of contracts handled. Through this rigorous review, only those solicitors who were in the top 1% of all exclusive planners were ultimately chosen.

Excellent Certified Planners are selected each year from among solicitors who have no record of incomplete sales, no disciplinary history over the past three years, and maintain high contract retention rates. Blue Ribbon Consultants are chosen by conducting a further review of those who have received this certification for five consecutive years, thereby applying even stricter criteria.

The total number of individuals named Blue Ribbon Consultants this year stands at 1,602. This accounts for about 1% of all 156,611 exclusive non-life insurance solicitors as of the end of last year. All exclusive solicitors comprise 144,229 exclusive planners and 12,382 exclusive individual agencies.

An official from the General Insurance Association of Korea stated, "Blue Ribbon Consultants are top-tier planners who represent the industry, setting the standard for exemplary sales activity. They are expected to play a leading role in promoting professionalism and fostering a sound operational culture at the insurance recruitment field."
