Resilient.

Our story in an interconnected world.
Our co‑operative is linked to the complex and dynamic world around us. We report on our engagement with the world through our various roles – as an insurer, a financial planner, an investor, a business and a co‑operative.
Our Climate Report contains detailed information on climate-related milestones, governance, strategy, risk-management and targets and metrics.
Financial resilience is cultivated, grown, and sustained in our communities.

We continue to build the bridge to a better future.
After year one of our four-year strategic plan, we’re confident in our direction. We’ve refreshed and recalibrated our previous strategy, making targeted refinements to reflect where we’ve been and where we want to go, all the while staying oriented to our purpose.

Today, our co-operative exists in communities from coast to coast to coast. We recognize that the many places where we live and work are home to past, present and future First Nations, Inuit and Métis Peoples.
The Co-operators Group Limited acknowledges that our corporate headquarters in Guelph, Ontario, sits on the Between the Lakes Treaty (No. 3) territory, the traditional land of the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nations and the ancestral homelands of the Anishinaabe, Haudenosaunee and Attawandaron Peoples.
We acknowledge that Indigenous Peoples are stewards of this land and that our work is carried out across the traditional territories of the First Nations, Inuit and Métis Peoples. This grounds our journey toward a path of truth and reconciliation with our Indigenous neighbours, clients, members, employees and partners.
