Insurance solutions for a changing world
Across our group of companies, we provide a wide range of insurance solutions to a diversity of clients. These solutions protect lives, homes, farms, vehicles, personal property and liability, as well as businesses, assets and employee well-being.
The world of risk is changing. Whether it’s increasing climate risk, the rapid advancement of technology like artificial intelligence, geopolitical conflicts and instability, or financial pressures from inflation and fast-rising interest rates, our products and services deliver on our purpose.
The changing nature of flood risk
We provide Canada’s first and only overland flood and storm surge insurance product – Comprehensive Water – that offers coverage to all Canadians, even those living in the highest flood risk zones. In 2023, we provided coverage to more than 700,000 Canadian households through Comprehensive Water, and we expanded our overland flood and sewer back-up coverage options for commercial clients.
Addressing auto theft
Canada has seen, on average, a car stolen every six minutes, resulting in significant costs - both to individuals and to society. In response, we’ve partnered with Tag, a leader in stolen vehicle recoveries, to implement an anti-theft device pilot program in Ontario. The pilot’s success resulted in the December launch of a program that makes Tag’s technology available at a competitive purchase price for all existing and new auto clients.
“An increasing number of Canadians just aren’t well-protected against the risks they face. Often these people are from vulnerable populations that have been marginalized in society. Our purpose compels us to provide solutions.”
