What is the Million Dollar Round Table? [And why It Matters to Your Financial Future]

The Global Standard of Excellence

When you’re choosing a financial professional, you want more than a friendly advisor, you want someone backed by proven expertise, unwavering ethics, and a track record of exceptional service.

MDRT isn't just an award; it's a global benchmark. If you’ve ever wondered what this prestigious designation means — and why it should influence your choice of advisor — here’s what you need to know.

What is the Million Dollar Round Table?

Founded in 1927, the Million Dollar Round Table (MDRT) is the Premier Association of Financial Professionals®, representing leading advisors from more than 80 countries and territories.

MDRT membership is not solely based on sales volume; it affirms a commitment to five core values:

• Exceptional Client Service: Always putting your needs first.

• Ethical Conduct: Acting with integrity, transparency, and honesty.

• Professional Knowledge: Pursuing continuous training and advanced expertise.

• High Production Standards: Meeting rigorous annual performance qualifications.

• The “Whole Person” Concept: Encouraging balanced, community-minded professionals who bring their best selves to their clients.

Why Choose an MDRT Advisor? (The Client Advantage)

For you, working with an MDRT-qualified advisor offers several key benefits:

• Unrivalled Expertise: MDRT members are among the world's most successful financial security professionals. They have demonstrated superior technical knowledge and ability in areas like life insurance, disability insurance, long-term care, and estate preservation.

• Highest Ethical Standards: To maintain membership, advisors must adhere to a strict Code of Ethics. This provides you with confidence that your advisor is focused on building a lasting, trusting relationship rather than just making a sale.

• Best Practices Guarantee: MDRT members share best business practices globally, meaning your MDRT qualified advisor is continuously exposed to world-class strategies to help you protect and grow your wealth.

The Elite Tiers: Court of the Table (COT) and Top of the Table (TOT)

MDRT also recognises members who achieve production levels far exceeding the base requirement with two exclusive levels:

• Court of the Table (COT): Requires production levels approximately three times the basic MDRT requirement.

• Top of the Table (TOT): The most elite level, requiring production levels approximately six times the basic MDRT requirement. Advisors achieving TOT are truly the top performers globally.
