When the underwriter accept the risk that provided by the broker he acts as follows :-

1/ Provides the client a required coverage and charge the correspondence premium by debiting the client's account and therefor submit the insurance policy together with debit note to the insured via the brokerage company.

2/ To pay the brokerage i.e ( commission )  the underwriter should issue a credit note in favor of the brokerage company.

Best wishes.

A debit note is issued to clients when charging premium, and a credit note is issued when refunding premiums to clients.

Moreover, in case broker is involved , a credit note is issued to broker for their brokerage, and in case of reinsurer's support, debit notes are issued to RI for their RI share of the premium.
