We modeled the single-peaked Broad Emission Lines (BELs) with two-component model (accretion disk, with surrounding spherical region), comparing it with observational line profiles for a number of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN). We find that the accretion in the Broad Line Region (BLR) can be present even if the profiles of BELs are single-peaked.
