Toronto, October 15, 2024 – The Insurance Brokers Association of Canada (IBAC) is pleased to announce that Gore Mutual Insurance Company has maintained its support of the Broker Identity Program (BIP) at the Full Partner level.

The sponsorship from Gore Mutual will support IBAC’s Broker Identity Program (BIP), a national advertising campaign that raises awareness of the significant value that insurance brokers provide for their clients – choice, advice and advocacy.

In addition, their investment will contribute to important IBAC initiatives including IBAC’s technology leadership, professional development of the broker workforce, and our strong and effective federal advocacy to maintain the separation of banking and insurance, which protects consumers and promotes a fair and competitive marketplace.

“We are proud to continue our partnership with the Insurance Brokers Association of Canada and support the Broker Identity Program. Gore Mutual is grateful for its network of broker partners and believes in the vital role that brokers play in providing choice, expert advice, and strong advocacy for clients. Our ongoing commitment to this program and IBAC’s initiatives reflects our dedication to ensuring a fair, competitive marketplace that helps consumers protect their greatest assets.” said Andy Taylor, President and CEO, Gore Mutual.

“Gore has always been a strong champion of the broker network,” said IBAC CEO Peter Braid. “Their renewed investment underscores our shared commitment to ensuring that consumers have the tools they need to make informed decisions on insurance matters, and recognizes the important role that brokers play in advising and supporting consumers. We greatly value this long-standing partnership.”
