Summary/Abstract: The object of research are the insurance brokers in Bulgaria, and its subject is the methodological framework for building a management financial model of an insurance broker in Bulgaria. The leading thesis in the present study is based on the statement that the optimal financial management of a brokerage company in the insurance sector in Bulgaria requires the construction of a complex model based on the control of the financial value of the company, which allows to compare the attractiveness of various business lines, through which to develop those of them, bringing the greatest increase in the value of the company. The purpose of the development is to justify a methodological framework for building a comprehensive financial management model based on the control of the financial value of the company, which allows by forecasting the benefits and costs to compare the attractiveness of different business lines for development and expansion. The focus is on gross premium income from corporate insurance and retail brokerage. As a result of the research, forecast values for the period 2019-2023 are generated, first the exogenous variables are predicted, and on their basis - the main target variables. The constructed model has an extremely high descriptive ability - as for the historical period the two curves - with real reporting data and the modelled one - practically coincide. On this basis, the forecast part can be considered relevant for the purposes of the management financial model. Similar results are achieved in the modelling and forecasting of retail premiums, which is the basis of the insurance broker's profit.
