No financial institution shall pay, directly or indirectly, any commission, service fee, brokerage, or other valuable consideration to any person for services as an insurance producer, temporary insurance producer, or limited insurance representative, or for such services by the person's members, officers, directors or employees, unless the person, and any member, officer, director, or employee performing the service, held a valid license regarding the class of insurance as to which the service was rendered, or unless the person was a properly registered firm at the time the service was performed.
